Those who advocate less support for Ukraine and more pressure on it to negotiate, inclusive of accepting painful territorial renunciations, like to repeat that Ukraine simply cannot win the war against Russia. True, but I see exactly in this the greatness of Ukrainian resistance: they risked the impossible, defying pragmatic calculations, and the least we owe them is full support, and to do this, we need a stronger Nato – but not as a prolongation of the US politics.

Also, who is "THEY"? Ukrainians are fighting back in no small part because their government has forced them to fight back and die needlessly or be used as human shields. He acts like Ukraine is an entity in and of itself, one who's people are not directly impacted by their government's policy which they don't choose. Lot of people are not defying "pragmatic calculations", their government is refusing to entertain the idea of peace
