Sоurce: "Just Wаr Theоry аnd The Russiа-Ukraine War."  Jeff McMahan Accоrding to both traditional and revisionist just war theory, it is permissible for Ukrainian soldiers to engage in violence in the collective defense of all those threatened by Russian aggression.  For a war or its continuation to be necessary, it must be the morally best means of achieving just aims, taking into account both the probability of success and the probable bad effects, both intended and unintended. The just aim of the Ukrainians is to avoid subjugation (conquest) by Russia. And it seems clear that when Russian tanks entered Ukraine and sought to encircle Kyiv, there was no alternative at all to armed resistance. It is conceivable that the Ukrainians could ultimately have maintained their political independence by engaging in mass nonviolent resistance, but that would have required years of preparation and training of the civilian population and thus was not an option when the tanks and ground forces arrived. QUESTION: 1. What reasons does this author give that Ukriane's war against Russia is a just war? Your answer must be in your own words.  Your answer must be a minimum of 50 words.
