Of course he wouldn’t, sadly in universe it does make sense. Utopia has been achieved for centuries and Earth is a united planet, there is no struggle except against “alien” species. He is a diplomat but also in the “military”. Whatever the Federation decides he is almost certain to follow no matter what.
The only possible conflict is against alien species where except from the bigger empires its clear the Federation is the top dog in the galaxy except for the delta quadrant shit they don’t have to deal with anyway.
Basicaly they don’t have to fight anyone unless they’re attacked. I think that one DS9-Eddington’s dialogue is appropriate, the Federation is realy like an assimilation machine, fairness and dialogue only on their terms, gunboat diplomacy etc.
For him to support any sort of resistance it would mean political interference, exactly the thing the Prime directive forbids. The PD alone is another can of worms that leads to this stuff being both good and bad.
