The Spaniards are the only ones outright saying it, but seem very obvious that the silent (and overwhelmingly economical) majority in EU think this way

Spain is part of NATO and the EU though and so kind of obliged to help defend EU and NATO countries near Russia.

That's the key problem yes.

The economic consequences of the war have been severe for Germany though, but they don't seem to care that much unfortunately…

Which is a very short-sighted view, because a Russia that manages to expand its territory is a Russia that will look to continue to expand into a now-weaker Europe.
