So in order to "cutting our losses in Ukraine" you think that to let russian regime & soldiers to oppress, torture, loot, rape, assassinate a large part of Ukrainian population will benefits to... Ukraine ?
Oh well, I think not: instead you just summarized very well your own ideology, which is something close to fascism or whatever unspoken atrocity (I guess I need to read more Tolkien books to give a detailed description)
There won't be any population left in Ukraine with a few more years of this war. Russia is not presenting a choice to the west, we are not supporting a war to stop Russia's invasion or their seizure of more land and destruction of more infrastructure. The outcome is not in doubt, only how disastrous it will be. "Until the last Ukrainian" is less and less of a joke with each passing day. A negotiated end to the war would be immediately beneficial to Ukraine more than anyone, and in the long run we'd have the onus to help rebuild the half of Ukraine kept in the western sphere of influence, and we'd see just how good all those western promises of unending support really were.
Its a very simple, logical observation, one true of many conflicts before this one and many more that will be fought in the future. If you can't win a war, you can only lose or lose harder.
