Does anyone know if they do join mid war - does that mean either Russia has to leave immediately, or else the defence pact gets triggered automatically and all of NATO gets pulled into it?
Or are preexisting wars not covered by the NATO plan?
A country cannot join NATO if it is in active conflict. No path to membership for Ukraine any time soon.
Ah right, makes sense, thank you
