What I find funny is that right now, because of the war, Ukraine legally can't join NATO simply because there is a provision that blocks attempts from an already at war nation to join NATO.
HOWEVER...if putin never tried this shit at all to begin with, Sweden and Finland wouldn't have joined. Ukraine had an agreement with russia to not join NATO as part of their deal from the early 90s when they gave up their nukes. Now, literally the second the war ends, you KNOW Ukraine will be welcomed into NATO with open arms.
The end result means that this war will have directly resulted in THREE new nations joining NATO that otherwise probably wouldn't have even attempted it.
