I’m increasingly hearing and reading the following comments from Russians in regards to the war in Ukraine:

“The war is wrong, but we cannot allow to lose now. Everything what has been invested in this war would have been lost and it all would have been in vain.”

You know how this is called?

Sunk-cost fallacy

@Tendar I think they are confused by the term "winner takes all" or russian analogue "winner is not to be judged" so they think they did so much destruction that they must win now to avoid the reparations.
