At the beginning of the new millenium the cold war was already in the past and Putin who became President wanted Russia to enter both EU and NATO. If both of them were about setting conflicts then one would think they would co-opt Russia.

Of course, Ukraine is not part of the EU, but it is part of Europe. And I am sure there would be no war in Ukraine if Russia were in EU.
