    That would literally just be rewarding Russia and encouraging them to invade more sovereign nations.

      Yep. Ukraine leaves to rebuild a war torn country, Russia would spend that same time to rebuild their army just to try invading again… just like what they did between 2014 and 2022.

        Except they have not ever committed to military action against a member of NATO.

        Unfortunately, this is true.

        Unless Ukraine has the means to repel Russia themselves, losing territory to a stronger opponent while lacking diplomatic relations to back you up is just part of how the world works.

        If Ukraine really wants someone to blame, they can blame whoever kept them from joining NATO sooner.
