A small sacrifice to pay for watching Ukraine destroy Russia's military and ability to threaten the rest of Europe. Find other ways to keep warm for a couple of months, in return for not having to worry about being invaded? Seems like a pretty good deal.

> Add this to the news that Russia is willing to negotiate

"Russia is willing to negotiate" only if they get to keep half of Ukraine and make the rest a puppet state of Russia. That is their inalienable starting point. A serious starting point for negotiations would be to first remove all Russian military from the entire country of Ukraine, including Crimea; then they can start to negotiate over war reparations and prosecution of war criminals.
