everyone agrees that Ukraine doesn’t join NATO because doing so destabilizes the entire region.
Lmfao yes, the very stable region around Ukraine will be checks notes …destabilized by joining a defense pact against the country that is actively invading and destabilizing the region.
Yeah, but that doesn’t destabilize the region. It might make Russia uncomfortable, but that’s not the same thing as regional instability.
Ukraine would have little interest in joining NATO if Russia wasn’t already making them uncomfortable, so even if it was instability, well, that egg was there before the chicken.
Instability is conflict. Only one nation started a conflict.

Tbf, if Ukraine joins NATO, that gives NATO a way around the mountains to attack RU, so I can see why that would upset them…
…but yeah if RU wasn’t invading people all the goddamn time this would be a lot less of an issue lmao, RU is their own worst enemy.
