Why won't they send in more NATO countries, after these months, to help Ukraine regain land from Russia?

It makes sense that they won't allow their own skin to be ravaged (United States, Britain, Germany, France etc), but why not the Baltics and Poland, at this point?
I'm surprised they haven't done so, after these long months
You're viewing a single thread.
Ukraine has not requested any foreign military personnel to enter its borders.
You might notice that every country in the world except one has respected Ukraine's desire to not have foreign military personnel inside its sovereign borders.
No Western power in modern times has put its troops inside the borders of a sovereign nation without being invited either by the nation itself or on behalf of an international coalition cooperating for what they believe to be the common good.
Obviously that last part has backfired a couple times. But so has just shrugging in the face of sovereign nations being invaded.
So we're going with the approach of arming & training Ukraine's military to hold the Russians to a standstill and maybe even push them back even though they are heavily outnumbered.
The fact that Zelensky can travel rather freely is going to be a pretty big smack in the face for Putin and his toadies.

USA. Syria. Literally still happening. Your statement is still technically correct, if you're willing to go mask off. Feel free.

I'm not sure why you need "even though" there. Yes, Russian forces in country 404 are heavily outnumbered.
