I suspect the condition would be the other way with Ukraine off NATO's agenda.
If NATO had been explicit that any Membership would be a long and difficult haul then I suspect we'd not be where we are now.
Consider the position if the Cold War had been different and we'd ended up with most of Western Europe but not the UK in the Warsaw Pact.
