    Ukraine is already part of the UN, man. The issue is that Ukraine wants to join NATO, to avoid this very thing from happening (Russia invading), and Russia regards the prospect of Ukraine in NATO as a threat (to their ability to invade Ukraine and extract concessions). Russian peace negotiations have consistently had the destruction of Ukrainian sovereignty and ability to defend itself as core demands, from the very start of the war.
