The U.S. Must continue its present course.
The U.S. Must continue its present course of aiding Ukraine while engaging in diplomatic efforts and cooperating with international partners to secure a peace agreement. This dual approach allows for self-defense of Ukraine while encouraging future peace.
This would only help Ukraine overcome the conflict with Russia, it will not completely fix the problem. A lasting peace agreement would be needed in addition.
Action Steps
The US government would continue to work with NATO allies in providing military aid to Ukraine as needed.
Also, continuous talks should occur with Ukraine and other concerned governments.
Diplomatic negotiation and pressure for Russia to remove its forces must continue.
The Criticism
Criticism could be that supporting Ukraine's defense is costly to US taxpayers. People will also suggest that focusing so heavily on external conflicts distracts from US internal needs.
The Response
I would deny these claims with the importance of international security, the moral urgency to support a democratic nation, and the potential economic and political damage to the US if this conflict is not contained.
