Because your first comment is inflammatory, and wrong.

Ukraine is far from being a "weaker neighbor" – it's proven to have more of a backbone than all of NATO.

And that "loosing land" part which seems so compelling: those are strategic withdrawals, forcing russians to haemorrhage men and equipment for Pyrrhic advances. Right now, those advances are being reversed: AFU is making significant gains around Zaporizhzhia, and massing troops near Kharkiv for possibly another major offensive.

1. Ukraine is merely a manforce provider. NATO does everything else. 2. Loosing land is pure math. About 500 sq.km per month, often more. Ukrainian advances remain to be an illusion.

So Soviet “heroes” were just a manforce and USSR was a manforce provider for lend lease, right?
