A Ukrainian loss, which could happen very soon if U.S. weapons don’t arrive, would ramp up Russian efforts to destabilize the governments of NATO countries and increase defense spending across the alliance, among other disastrous effects, Hanno Pevkur, Estonia’s Defense Minister, told reporters Friday.
When U.S. officials like President Joe Biden talk about why Ukraine matters, they rely on broad notions of democracy and the continuation of the international order—without specifically explaining what a Ukraine loss would mean for ordinary Americans. Perhaps because of this, Americans are evenly split on the question of whether the United States is doing too much for Ukraine.
Pevkur said one of the deliverables from last year’s NATO Summit in Vilnius was new battle plans for Eastern European countries should Ukraine fall.
“These plans address these different scenarios,” he said. “Of course, for obvious reasons I cannot be very specific, but I can assure you that these plans are shaped by looking at the possible Russian posture in our neighborhood.”
One of the likely consequences of a loss, he said, is a much larger and more dangerous Russian military.

Yep I personally don’t care to worry about Russia.
Indeed and we are witnessing the rotten fruit of that harvest.

Were the greatest generation that fought back Nazi Germany and Imperialistic Japan in WWII, or those that supported them, war pigs in your mind?
Stick your sleazy strawman where the sun don’t shine.
Right. Google vampiress Vicky for the ‘facts’,
only you idiots do that.
A little projection there, Skippy.
...Skippy!
Your initial post was an attack, Weirdo.
You took the question with your own words (war pigs) as an attack? You are really thin skinned, Skippy. Grow up.
You want to pretend the CIA’s Ukraine proxy war is the same as WWII and they are not, War Pig.
And your statement as to my position is ignorant. You dont ever bother asking what others think. You just attack if they dont agree with you.
Another strawman. So tiresome.
So are your childish dodges.
Ah, here comes the appeasement brigade.
First of all, I don't use Guugle and neither should you.
Second of all you cannot cite any URL from anywhere the confirms the fantasy that the CIA admitted fomenting the Maidan revolution.
However, there WAS an attempt at a forcible coup in Ukraine in 2014.

Oleg Bakhtiyarov, a leader of the extremist Eurasian Youth Union of Russia, being detained in Kyiv by the SBU on March 31. The SBU said that Bakhtiyarov, working under the guise of a civil society activist in Kyiv, had recruited some 200 people to assist in storming the buildings and had stockpiled Molotov cocktails and various tools to carry out the provocation. He was also in possession of an undisclosed amount of cash. “O.Bahtiyarov promised participants of the assault a cash reward up to $500 each,” reads the SBU statement. Bahtiyarov’s goal was to destabilize Ukraine and disrupt the presidential election campaigns. Elections are scheduled for May 25. In addition, Bahtiyarov had made arrangements with various Russian television channels to produce video footage of the raids on the buildings, ostensibly to be used as propaganda, according to the SBU report.
