  • A proxy war would be imply that neither the US nor Russia are involved in the Russian invasion of Ukraine on a direct military basis. As that’s not the case in this context, while the conflict has some similarities to a proxy war in terms of pitting the resources of the West against those of Russia, financially sustained by its trade deals with Iran, India, and China, it is a gross mischaracterization to even imply that neither size is more to blame than the other in the conflict when all Russia needs to do to end the war, financial restitutions aside, is simply return to Ukraine all of its stolen lands and kidnapped citizens.
