Ukraine needs at least 100,000 US/NATO troops to fight the Russians in Ukraine.

Note to self: probably far more than 100,000 US/NATO troops are required. Estimates show 200,000 Ukrainian forces currently on ground and 400,000-500,000 Russian troops inside or staged outside Ukraine.

If there are 400K Russian soldiers staged in/near Ukraine as you say, you're going to need over 1 million soldiers to knock them out.

That number is based on the rule of thumb of 3 attackers per 1 defender.

Pray tell, where are those soldiers going to come from?
