what if those 110 millions decided to take an active part in war? the war would very quickly end

This is an insane take. Some percent of those people would die due to active participation in the war; you can not use the war "very quickly end[ing]" as justification for sacrificing human lives. I guarantee you the vast majority of these people are more interested in living their lives without threats of external violence than sacrificing themselves for someone else's war.

Plus imaging sending people from Africa to fight in Ukraine... That's without mentioning you are literally doing the Volksturm kind of thing, a civilian with a gun it's still a civilian.
