@andre8860 And how much did being on their own and not part of NATO protect people in Ukraine, Moldova, Georgia and Chechnya. from Russian attack and invasion? Obviously not at all Russian troll.

@truthadvocacy You define "sellout" as making allegiances with friends so that one is not invaded, occupied and oppressed by aggressive imperialist Russia? Very strange how you Russian imperialists perceive the world.

Two points: One: Some in the west may want to end financing of Ukraine and push Ukraine to agree to a ceasefire because they figure that the conflict is frozen and nobody can win but Trump and some of his supporters would likely be happy if Trump's buddy Putin was able to conquer Ukraine because Ukraine lost support from western countries. Two: I think it's misleading for Russian supporters to claim that this is a proxy war that the west launched against Russia as obviously it was Russia that chose to invade Ukraine three times and Russia could end the war any day by simply leaving Ukraine and ending attacks on Ukraine. However, given that Russia has decided to wage this war some in the west can't help but notice that for an expenditure that is a tiny percentage of American military spending the aid given Ukraine has been very effective at destroying much of the Russian military and with no NATO soldiers injured or killed as well. So from that perspective, Russian human wave attacks that cause huge numbers of Russian casualties may make some in the west think that continuing to support Ukraine is a very good idea because it ensures that the Russian military will continue to suffer massive losses which means that Russia will pose less of a threat to other countries. There is also the extra effect that because of all the casualties more talented, educated young Russian men are likely to flee Russia and this will deplete Russia's potential supply of military recruits, damage the Russian economy and make Russia's demographic crisis worse. There is a bit of a caveat in that if those Russian soldiers being killed are criminals or people from non-Russian ethnic groups in Eastern Russia or Ukrainians conscripted from Russian occupied areas then Putin may be happy to have members of those groups killed off, especially if some Ukrainian troops are killed in the process. Of course nobody thinks that Putin has any moral standards that would stop him from having people he wants dead fight Ukrainian soldiers whom he wants dead.
