If he wanted to properly start WW3 he could try but he wouldn't, for the same reasons we are not putting troops into Ukraine, or operating a no fly zone.

A negotiated peace is not necessarily "appeasement", if it stops the killing.

Or are you all for full out war to the end, keep fighting until either Russia is defeated (very unlikely)? Or the Ukraine is flattened (very likely)

Then again it's not your blood being spilt is it?

This is not 1938, the consequences for the West getting involved is the possible annihilation of the planet.
