The internal politics in the NATO countries makes it unlikely that Ukraine could be admitted. For one many landlocked countries are still getting their energy from Russia. That’s the political equivalent of handing your testicles to someone who has his own agenda on what you should and shouldn’t be doing. For another reason, there’s centuries of bad feelings among the various ethnic groups over who did what to whom in 1390. From an ocean away America sees, say, Hungary, as one big single color on the map. The Hungarians are 84 percent ethnic Hungarians. The rest are split into several ethnic groups, and each has an opinion on Ukraine. The Hungarian government needs to take their opinions into account...along with where their national testicles are.

Just disband NATO and take the ludicrous idea of NATOized Ukraine off of the table. There is no point wasting trillions just to maintain a stable of Euroweenie globalist bootlicking satellites. Get the U.S. out of NATO and off the European continent. Let the fratricidal European nations do as they please with each other.
I couldn’t care less about Europe

The time for NATO is past. We should pull out.

And if NATO admits Ukraine, we should pull out IMMEDIATELY.

That would be a “Guns Of August” pretext for simply forcing us into open war, and that is not what NATO was designed for in the absence of a communist bloc Cold War threat.

Trump will not allow corrupt YouCrayne to become a member of NATO.
Z-Man can cry all he wants. It won’t help.

Kyiv is not in NATO and NATO has no business talking about defending it.
