So what happens when Ukraine loses? Are we at war with Russia then?

[–] DupaCycki@lemmy.world 6 points 9 months ago (3 children)

In such a hypothetical scenario Ukraine becomes part of Russia, and nothing really changes for the rest of the world. Nobody has any obligations to rescue Ukraine. Sure, we can start a war to reclaim Ukraine's territory, but we're not going to. Likewise, Putin won't attack Europe, because Russia can't afford such a large-scale conflict. Especially one that would likely end with their loss.
