Mitch McConell says the quiet part out loud.
Exact full quote from CNN:
“People think, increasingly it appears, that we shouldn’t be doing this. Well, let me start by saying we haven’t lost a single American in this war,” McConnell said. “Most of the money that we spend related to Ukraine is actually spent in the US, replenishing weapons, more modern weapons. So it’s actually employing people here and improving our own military for what may lie ahead.”

Russia can unilaterally end the war by leaving Ukrainian territory. They choose to extend the war because they want land and resources.
And have NATO 500 miles from Moscow and all of Russia's industry? That would be suicidal, Everyone remembers Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya.
Also the reason the west is extending the war is because they too want land and resources. This is a war between two bourgeois dictatorships
Are you saying that Russia should leave the Donbas region and leave those people to be subjugated by the undemocratic Ukrainian gov that's been indiscriminately murdering them for 8 years???
Hate Russia if you want but why do you hate the people of Donbas?
