You can only vote on one answer.

When they do it will turn the tables on Putin.
Ukraine is already going through the accelerated process of becoming a NATO member which means it could happen inside the next 18-24 months.

No, as long as Russia stays within the Ukrainian border, NATO will not act. Once Russia leaves, then Ukraine [i]may[/i] get approval to join NATO and only then will it fall under the protection of NATO. NATO Countries will supply Ukraine with weapons to fight Russia but they won't attack Russia directly now.

It's a bit like "As long as those punks are in your house, the police can't help you, unfortunately"

@spjennifer Yup - despite the nonsense spouted by putin, NATO is a purely defensive organisation.
If the russians bring their genocidal behaviour to a NATO member they'll get a very severe reminder that they're a Potemkin country with an army that's a global joke.

@newjaninev2 Sometimes I wonder if Poteen realizes just how much total might NATO has as an organization, they would be crushed pretty quickly should they tangle with NATO.
