The point is that nothing we have done so far is going to stop Putin. All we have managed to do is slow him down
Its becoming clear that sanctions will not stop him. He knew sanctions were coming and he didnt even flinch.
The Russian people will not stop him (especially as the vast majority of them support him and those that dont are too scared to say anything)
The ONLY thing that is going to stop him is military defeat and the only way to achieve that is to supply Ukraine with offensive aswell as defensive weapons. That means aircraft
You cant win a war if all you have is defensive weapons and your only option is to dig in and wait for the enemy to attack. Bear in mind that Putin has only used about 20% of his conventional forces so far and once he releases those thermobaric weapons he has, its game over
Ukraine needs to take control of its air space NOW. Then they can start hunting down the Russian forces and push them back
