You literally started googling this now. Yes, there is opposition to them joining. That faction has been losing. Ukraine wanted in, and the ultimate point is that Putin had every reason to fear it. So, he acted predictably with that fear, and stopped it. This is all sensible.Oh right, 2005. Yet everyone has been saying for years now including recently that Ukraine is a long way from qualifying. Google "are NATO members wanting Ukraine to join" and you'll get tons of articles on why they can't.
Note that sensible doesn't mean justified. It is sensible for a cornered dog to bite. We cornered a rabid dog. He bit. Boo freaking hoo.
