being publicly receptive to Ukraine joining NATO puts NATO credibility on the line because It has to follow through if Ukraine applies or else.
But For Germany and all the new Nato members to the east, NATO is not about advancing american values, it is about security guaranty against a resurgent Russia. A NATO that can seem to extend a security guaranty to ukraine by suggesting ukraine can join nato, and then back away from admitting Ukraine under russian pressure, does not seem very credible. it would seem its security guaranty guaranty nothing when push comes to shove.
Therefore installing an anti-russia government in Ukraine that will ask join NATO puts NATO credibility on the line.
To be blunt, the real underlying aim of the US in promoting a anti-russia government in kiev through the colored revolution is to add ukraine to NATO so as to permanently make Russia a non-factor in Euroasia geopolitics. it’s just the US did not think though the cards it has abs russia had, and ignored the fact that russia can lay down a royal flush in the ensuing game.
