That’s irrelevant as the location of ICBMs are no longer restricted by geography. Nuclear subs also nullify that point.
The issue is having your enemy ( or perceived enemy) at your front door. Which is where the two situations align.

Depends on who is being invaded.
If you welcome your invaders with open arms are you being invaded? I don’t doubt most of Ukraine won’t want it but if the border tows are happy?
If imperialistic Wales rose up and Wrexham invaded Chester, but Chester said, but we like it, we’d rather be Welsh, what are you going to do ?
