Clearly the best solution is to fight until the last Ukrainian. You're saying that arming and propping up an unsustainable government is peaceful, which is objectively insane. Let's say that NATO didn't arm Ukraine, Russia surrounds the capitol back in February, decapitates the government, and they surrender ceding the Donetsk and Luhansk and signing a neutrality pact. How is that objectively not more peaceful than the current meat grinder?
