You telling me that I’m asking the wrong question just shows you have no answer to my original question of why it is in our interest to have Russia take Ukraine. Giving a few dollars to help an ally repel an attack by an openly hostile country makes sense to me. You may see it differently, but until I hear an actual answer from someone, I will continue to be skeptical of anyone’s motives who says no more aid to Ukraine.

There is no national interest that deserves American sacrifice.

If Ukraine doesn’t negotiate peace, it’s their foolish choice.
If Russia completes its invasion successfully, it doesn’t hurt us.
If Russia fails, it doesn’t help us.

Europe should handle this regional problem.

We can’t intervene worldwide as the policemen of the world, nor the financial backers of all wars.

When did Russia become a hostile country? Just twenty years ago everybody in Russia loved America, the brightest of Russians undergone indoctrination in the US, and Washington literally owned Russian politics.
