This is also an imperial stance of Western partners towards Ukrainians who are treated like infantile children who just don’t know any better. Ukrainian writers, thinkers, sports professionals are right to push back against that.
Forcing Ukrainians to shake hands and share space with Russians means normalizing what Russia does to Ukraine. It means ignoring Russian missiles destroying residential buildings, thousands of 🇺🇦ians killed, tortured and deported by Russians. It's not just Putin who does all this

In addition to what Tim says, cutting off aid to Ukraine invites russia and China to expand their aggressive stance in Europe and Asia, increasing the chances of the US needing to intervene with boots on the ground. Ukrainians are paying the highest price for this war right now,
Cutting off Ukraine aid makes America unreliable, weakens the cause of democracy, threatens the international legal order, encourages tyrants around the world, and hastens Chinese aggression.

A beautiful translation of a poem by Ukraine’s national poet!
