A settlement brought about by the withdrawal of Ukrainian aid will only benefit Russia. It's not even clear they would bother with one if they knew all they had to do was wait until our resolve crumbles.
Russia needs to know they can't win this war either if we're ever going to get them to any sort of realistic terms.

And how many Ukrainian conscripts should die while the West ponders how to make Russia understand this (if indeed, it’s even achievable at all). One million? Two? Three?
