As we have done with North Korea.  Its a pimple we need not burst,

godlike powers.

North Korea does impact the rest of the world - it’s behind a lot of
hacking campaigns, which we pay for in various ways (ransoms, theft,
post-attack cleanup, etc). It’s how they stay afloat. However, as you
say, letting that continue is much cheaper than military intervention.

In contrast sending old NATO kit to Ukraine is practically free l-)
