Pinto the huge difference is that Putin has thrown all he's got into this war except nukes. Where as the West has only given the very basics. The west hasn't entered the air war offensive, or directly launched missiles. There's been no direct Naval involvement, or boots on the ground. The goal seems to be to wear Putin down to undermine his hold on power, which seems to be slowly working. The worst thing that could happen now for Ukraine and Europe is Trump being Potus again, as he's stated that Ukraine won't receive a penny more.
