That's very vague and general, and avoids specifics. I'm not the one making the decisions here, but Ukrainian leadership seems to know a lot better what they're doing than you or I. They are balancing complex problems and have been doing so quite successfully. And the fact that Ukraine is so unwilling to condemn their future generations to Putin's oppression is a massive stroke of luck for other European countries who might otherwise be next in Putin's plans. Keeping the war confined to Ukraine and ensuring a Ukrainian win there, is by far the best option for European security. Strengthening Putin is the worst option, and giving him a victory here will do exactly that.
