Is America Prolonging the Russo-Ukrainian War?

The Russo-Ukrainian war has been ongoing for almost a year, with no end in sight. The conflict is a result of deep-rooted history and rivalry between Eastern and Western powers, with NATO playing a significant role. While media attention and aid may support Ukraine, it may also be increasing Russian aggression across the border, and scholars suggest that a move away from Cold War ideologies is necessary to focus on peace talks and a cease-fire.
