I agree with your sentiment -- fight to win or don't fight. But this is a no-brainer for me. The choices are: Engage to win, which will be a very bloody and high risk fight; or negotiate a settlement that ends the war in exchange for Ukraine giving something up, and for us (probably NATO) to make a permanent commitment to protecting a new border which gives Russia something for its time. I have not followed this war closely since right after it began, but I don't see any other viable outcome. This war could have been prevented but we had a numb-nuts president who didn't know how to negotiate it. In a couple months those circumstances will change and the death and destruction will cease for now at least. I think that is a reasonable solution given where we are. This war was lost in the 2014 phase; it just took a break.
