Not fueling it is a good way to go toward an end. Politicians and rulers are benefiting from this war, they don't fight their wars they send others to die while they drink champagne.
The cold war never officially end
Yeah, okay, but that means China, Iran and NK would keep pumping Russia up with weapons to keep obliterating Ukraine. One-sided cutting of supply wouldn't work now or in the future.
No one officially said it even started, lol. There wasn't a note to proclaim it from either side. Yet, you can notice it wasn't like in the 50s when in the 90s and 00s the relationships between countries got warmer.
The west is doing business with china perfectly fine even as even you are aware that they supply russia in this war.
The west is the side that spend more and by a huge margin. Cutting the spending would work great for people now and in the future.
You know these countries profit from Russia too, right?
What's this margin vs their GDP, for example?
