      Because western countries do not have the industrial capacity for a long-term war nor the ability to topple a country as large as Russia in the short term.

          I never dodged anything. No power on the planet has the ability to overtake a country as large as Russia, a nuclear-armed Russia at that, in a short-term war. Invading Russia is notoriously difficult, and the neighboring countries with land bridges do not have the ability to field a large offensive, except China, which is an ally.
