I don't know. I am confident that money will find a way. Look at the cost of the Ukraine war on China as well as Russia. It is in no one's financial interests to commit to a war these days. Putin is indicative of the world's weak spot. When individuals use their state for personal gain, everyone looses. If the world used a combined effort to prevent invasions by forcefully pushing invaders back into their countries, then even these types of actors can be neutered.
How would you prevent the US from doing such things? That would mean turning Europe against its biggest ally and it's not something I see feasible, giving they are the country that most wars and invasions has caused, and the fact that throughout history Europe hasn't done anything to prevent such things tells me it's not something that's going to change. Your example only works because it's a common enemy for both the US and Europe.
Well unless all sign up to it then it would not happen. In other words, you won't.
