Why is it our decision?
RE: Why is it our decision?
Because Ukraine has our money and is getting more.
Because, if we (the West) said that we were suddenly ending our involvement (provision of military and financial aid; sanctions against Russia), the situation would rapidly deteriorate to Ukraine's disadvantage, and we'd have another "Frozen Conflict Zone," a gaping wound in the middle of Europe, for the next 30 years - and no one, save Russia, wants that.
