As citizens we have the right to demand that our rulers find a solution that is not an escalation of war with unpredictable consequences. If Putin is crazy, his thing would be to strengthen the mechanisms of reason in this part of the world.

It would be better to allocate these enormous resources to exhaust all avenues for peace and stop scaring us into endorsing a conflict that will in no way be ours. If the escalation reaches such a level we can consider humanity extinct because the only way to respond to the red button is to also press the same button.
