If we are serious about UA regaining all territory, they must be allowed to expand the war into Russia. It’s the only way a state can be reached where “return to the status quo ante” is a gain for both sides.

Sanctions do provide some leverage too.

Mostly just hurts the Russian people, Putin doesn't give a shit.

In that sense, same as war. Putin's not going to be hit; there's no direct impact on him. But both cause economic and political pressures for him.
