The thing is, most eastern europeans wanted to join the Europe Union, so countries like Poland and Romania joining NATO was kind of secundary consequence of the facts. Of course the americans, the english and the french saw this with a huge smile on their faces, but I doubt they would try to force eastern european nations to join NATO and EU by force, had not eastern europeans wanted to kick out the russian influence during the post-soviet period. I think the same is true about Ukraine. Most ukranians want to see their country joining EU, not NATO (at least it was the case before the current wat I guess). They didn't vote for Zelensky because they hate the russians and Russia, but because they want to develop their country and boost their economy and life standart. Of course there's some anti-russian people, but I'm pretty sure they make up a very small minory there. The average Joe cares about the quality of his life, healthcare, security, oportunities for him and his family, etc. What does Russia offer as an ally? Would Ukraine become and developed country being a russian influenced country (economically)? We're talking about the will of the ukranian people vs Putin and his staff's plans here, that's why Russia is wrong in my opinion.
In my view (correct if I'm wrong), NATO would never try to impose it way into Ukrania hadn't the ukranine people not vote for Zelensky and pro-west politicians, because they know they can't expand their frontiers and add more allies without the consent of the ukranian population and the local politicians. I'm not an expert on that matter, so I'm open to debate.
