It might be useful to remember the Treaty of Versailles and the reparations that Germany was forced to repay.
And all Germany and Russia had/have to do is get out of the countries that were invaded. This also won’t bankrupt the country. The sanctions on the other hand…
Of course, poor, beleaguered and impoverished countries always choose liberal democracy.
I think the ship sailed on Russia being run by a fascist who is obsessed with revanchism and invades other countries.
And if that were the only concern, then it wouldn't matter. It's when a population realizes that they have nothing left to lose, that they might as well follow the fascist dictator into wars to reclaim glory, in the hopes that tomorrow will be better. The next fascist might well attack NATO, then we're all in it.
