You are entirely right, but the person you're replying to was certainly referring to how the US and Germany together prevented NATO from providing a more concrete timeline and encouraged the vague promise of Ukraine being offered an invitation to NATO when unspecified "conditions have been met".

There can't be a timeline unfortunately. Putin knows that NATO won't let Ukraine in during a conflict. All he has to do is keep any sort of conflict going and he prevents NATO membership.
