    It already has been a war between Russia and Nato. Where do you think Ukraine is getting all of their military equipment?

      I think it’s obvious there’s a difference between lend-lease support of a nation defending itself and full on world war.

        The difference is we can use Ukraine as a proxy and don’t have to send our own children to die. This war could last for 100 years and the only cost is NATO treasure, plus Ukrainian and Russian blood.

          I don’t disagree with most of what you said. But NATO getting fully and directly involved - As in moving in with 10s of thousands of troops to take part of Ukraine that Russia has claimed (Eg Crimea) would be a massive escalation, and I don’t think there’s a credible military or geopolitics expert who would disagree.
