Additional to the other great answers here, is there also an economics benefit for US in this?
I’m not an economist and would prefer someone with more expertise to chime in e.g. /u/lijjili
But isn’t there an increasing risk of a mass sell-off of the US treasury bond market and as result a risk of hyperinflation in the US. The threat of a war in Europe would help stabilise and increase demand for US treasuries.
Similar to the introduction of Euros and the US-NATO bombing of Yugoslavia in 2000?
*Also, Ukraine committed to the China BRI last year. War would push this potentially back.
