If they want that, they can want that. If the US or the EU are prepared to support them in that goal, then we should be ready to pay that cost. If we aren’t prepared for the costs, then just state that directly. If we are prepared to some of the cost by donating arms, then we can say that is our intent. I don’t see a lot of evidence of deception here. What I remember is Zelensky bending over backward to persuade Trump to give them the Javelins and Trump screwing him over.
