Us is not involved with boots on the ground. Now, try to imagine what you just said, but shift it to your country being invaded and imagine being told you're weird because you want soldiers to defend your motherland rather than giving away land

How naive of you to think that native Ukrainians stuck under ruzzian occupation won’t become casualties after such “deal”.

Would you be okay signing over your country’s lands to Russia right now? Assuming you aren’t in Russia already.

We would prefer less soldiers dying today than more soldiers and civilians dying in a year, after ruzzia recovers, restocks and attacks again.

Would the US give up Alaska if Russia attacked from Siberia? I'd say the US wouldn't. Ukraine has more support from EU countries who I think will step up more now that the US has become a Nazi theocratic state.

If you stop and think a little longer you should realize that if you give after to Russia you prove that aggression works.

And now they'll get to rebuild their military to attack Ukraine again, or maybe another country, leading to many more civilian deaths.

Russian apologists are not just weird, they're dangerous.

It's already proven that it works for the USA. Why shouldn't it work for Russia? Except, at least in this case it's not aggression.

You mean like USA does all the time.

> Russian apologists are not just weird, they're dangerous.

USA apologists are even weirder.

Russia is waging a war of conquest to annex its former colonies and restore its empire. There is zero reason to believe this will stop unless it is stopped.

You failed to answer the question of how is that worse than the USA doing the same thing to the rest of the world since its separation from the UK.

What areas has the US annexed in the last 100 years?

> What areas has the US annexed in the last 100 years?

Why stop at 100 years? Is it because the whole current USA territory is actually annexed?

FYI, here's the list of wars the US was involved into, most of them they started. I leave it as an exercise for you to count the casualties and add it up.
