Why won't they send in more NATO countries, after these months, to help Ukraine regain land from Russia? (lemmygrad.ml)

It makes sense that they won't allow their own skin to be ravaged (United States, Britain, Germany, France etc), but why not the Baltics and Poland, at this point?

I'm surprised they haven't done so, after these long months

Poland and who?) Balticshits combined have armed forces that number in around the population of my city block. Probably even if you add the laughable stationed NATO contingent.

That aside, military victory isn't the point. That's why they're using a sacrificial pawn. Also, not even cartoon villains in Pentagon want to check if Putin will push the button.

All three have around 50000 military personnel combined including non-combat being probably majority. All three also have zero proper combat aircraft and ships. They also have (combined) zero tanks, few hundreds APC and similar armed vehicles, around 150 artillery pieces (including self-propelled mortars) and barely any anti-air defenses.

Well, alright, that's a few city blocks, but not even a fourth of the whole district)
