Ukraine isn't a threat to Russia's national security. Them being in NATO does not affect Russia in any other way than it would put an end to Russia's attempts to take over Ukraine, at least militarily. Nothing is a real military threat to Russia, because they're a huge military power with nukes.

We can agree on this one point but letting them in NATO is asking for nuclear war.
