I agree with you. And the reason is that support for Ukraine must not be contingent on a particular result in a particular amount of time. This is a war begun by an invasion of one sovereign country of another. The invader happens to be a strategic foe of the United States. The United States has a strong national interest in Russia not securing a victory from its aggression and a strong national interest in seeing a Russian strategic defeat. That is the reason we are aiding Ukraine. And it does not change if Ukraine fails in this battle or that battle. The interest remains.
