They'll surely love Russia after getting invaded a second time. If alignment or invasion are their choices, Russia is really pushing them into NATO.

I'm not disagreeing there. Care to revise your statement that Ukraine was neutral prior to the invasion or are you just going to ignore that?

Neutral in what regard? Russia violated their sovereignty in annexing parts of their territory and in supporting militarily separatist movements. They've been forced into opposition by Russia's aggression.
