Europe had no common enemy a few months ago. European countries wanted to subconsciously tear each other apart. Now Putin has created a common scapegoat. As long as nukes don't fly, the west is actually better off than before.

Actually there's no scenario where Europe or the planet ends up better of as a result of this.

All of that will increase resources wasted for militarization, lower the efficiencies of the economies and delays action on climate change.

And all of that is the best case scenario.

Europe is now (possibly) united, but only in suffering.
