War Fatigue
In the last few days, I have begun to hear about this term very often. The first one was when reading an article in the British newspaper “The Guardian”. After that, I started being more aware of its use.
“War Fatigue” basically means being tired of war. I cannot imagine anybody who is in favour of wars just because that is the way it is. Of course, if your country is invaded and your people slaughtered, then, everything is different. Ukrainians would be happier living peacefully but for Putin launching a full-scale invasion of their loved homeland. According to the findings of a survey carried out by The European Council on Foreign Relations, in the weeks and months since the invasion of Ukraine, Europeans surprised both Putin and themselves by their unity and decisiveness. After the UK leaving the EU and other countries thinking about taking the same decision, Putin miscalculated the effect the invasion of Ukraine would have on the member states of the EU. Rather than refusing to welcome the hundreds of thousands of Ukrainian refugees coming every day since the war started, European countries received them with open arms, especially Poland. Nothing like that had ever happened before. Not only did the EU take in the millions of Ukrainians fleeing their country but it also sent humanitarian aid. The EU went to such great lengths as to send weaponry to try and help Ukrainian fight off its invaders.
At the start of the war, Putin thought it would take him just a few days to capture Kyiv and overthrow the Ukrainian elected president. However, he could not be more mistaken. Now, after almost 120 days since the invasion of Ukraine started, the war has begun to take its toll on Europeans and they are split between those who want the war to end as quick as possible and those who want justice to be done. In other words, economic stability versus holding Putin responsible for the many war crimes committed during the invasion of Ukraine.

Feedback
I think you did a pretty good job. There are some usage errors, and some sentences that I would reword to be less clunky, but in general, your writing is grammatically correct and makes logical sense.

"But for Putin launching ... " is the same as "if Putin hadn't launched ... ", isn't it?

You're right, in retrospect, 'but for Putin launching' is acceptable, if a bit dated.
