Need I remind you that Ukraine used to have nukes which would have acted as a deterrent against Russia from an invasion? And they were given away with a signed declaration from Russia in the Budapest Memorandum to respect Ukraine's borders and sovereignty?
You cannot trust or appease Russia. Period. Chamberlain wanted to avoid WWII through appeasement by giving Germany what it wanted and and ended up getting it anyways against a much stronger German opponent.
And beside, Ukraine gave Russia concession terms at the start of the war that included neutrality which Putin outright refused.
This was never about NATO but about rebuilding the Russian Empire
