Allowing UKR into NATO = UKR can poke RUS all it wants and retaliation means Article 5.Russia invades Ukraine and threatens nuclear war if the West intervenes. Who's blackmailing who?
Too far fetched? What's with UKR army shelling Donbas then?? If UKR joins NATO what stops it from keeping on shelling Donbas from its own territory and say to RUS, if you protect Donbas, we invoke Article 5?
Hmm.
