     @whiteline Americans love being talked down to by people dependent on us and substantially weaker than us.

     @sun leaving all else aside basically we don't have a federal government that can just say "we go to war now", and individual countries will not say "we go to war now", it all has to be coordinated
     
     NATO would be the mechanism for this but it's now considered subverted, so what will seemingly happen is that something akin to an EU army will be formed, excluding nations like turkey or hungary that are not really loyal to our cause, values and interests

     @whiteline Very clearly Ukraine would not win without help from Europe so I am not sure what people are even doing

     @sun because that would mean war against a nuclear power
     
     also a strong preference for unilateral military action considering the circumstances

     @sun
     
     As far as I know the entire Western political angle on Ukraine is to make sure Russia is the bad guy. Winning and losing the war is not a significant factor. The West will spin it either way and because most Western countries are full of people who cannot understand Russian or even sound out a word in Cyrillic letters, it'll work unless they fumble really hard. And Europe is doing exactly that when it comes to how they're dealing with Trump not being a team player.
