That's just word salad, and doesn't change the central fact:

   NATO formally rejected Ukraine's membership application in 2008
It's exactly the same as when you get rejected by Google - of course you get a nice email (months later) saying that you're welcome to apply again. That's all that "aspirational" statement was. It wasn't a proclamation of anything of substance.
