No they won’t. They’re terrified of opposing NATO, which is why they react with the same “don’t you dare call the cops” mentality/reaction as an abusive husband does, whenever they think someone in their orbit might be thinking of getting protection from NATO.
Of course, the whole thing is stupidly counterproductive if the goal was for their neighbors to stay uninvolved with NATO. The sum result of their actions in Ukraine is that any country with half a brain (and uncorrupted leaders) anywhere near them is looking around for any and all security guarantees they could get from anyone. Which means NATO.
