520 _a Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 was a moment of clarity for the United Sates and its allies. An urgent Russain aggression and to punish Moscow for its transgression. While the Western response was clear from the start, the objective the endgame of this war has been nebulous. This ambiguity has been more a feature than a bug of U.S. policy. As national security adviser Jake Sullivan put it I June 2022, “We have in fact refrained from laying out what we see as an endgame. We have been focused on what we can do today, tomorrow, next week to strengthen the Ukrainians’ hand to the maximum extent possible, first on the battlefield and then ultimately at the negotiating table. “This approach made sense in the initial months of the conflict. – Reproduced
