Basically the rules are, you can't be in a fight already if you want to join.
Which makes a lot of sense. If you could wait until you need backup to join, you'd just never join until you need it. No country wants to get sucked into someone else's war.
At least, that's the mentality. The truth is, no war is "someone else's war". We're all in this together globally, and oppression anywhere is a threat to everywhere.
Who knows, maybe NATO'll update to the modern era after this. Maybe.
Probably not, at least not while conservatives hold power in allied countries.
