Only military capability will deter some actors as clearly evidenced most recently in Ukraine.

the ukraine was invaded therefore more military spending would deter russians from invading the ukraine?

Has Russia invaded a NATO country? No

Should Europe have done more in 2014? Yes

Would Ukraine have been destroyed if they hadn't received training from NATO members since 2014? Maybe

Ukraine is not a NATO member.
