That is idealistic. The same conditions are not present in those countries as in Ukraine. They do not have ongoing civil wars in which they shell Russians for eight years, nor are they threatening to invade Russian territory.
The Russians don’t have any problems with Finland or Sweden, there was no coup there, they did not refuse for years to abide by the terms of a UN ratified agreement. They don’t have the same military potential that Ukraine has. They just don’t pose the same kind of threat to Russia that a NATO Ukraine would.
Sure Russia would prefer they stayed neutral, but ultimately them joining NATO is a bigger loss for Finland and Sweden (loss of sovereignty, loss of security, loss of money that they now have to pay to maintain NATO bases and buying NATO junk, etc.) than it is for Russia.
Think your questions through yourself before asking them. You may be able to answer some of your questions yourself, or else refine them them before asking, if you take the time to think them through.

Edit to add: In particular, please read theory on how to think in a dialectical materialist way. Someone may have better suggestions, but the first that pops into my head is Georges Politzer’s Elementary principles of philosophy.
