We'll have to agree to disagree - it's not an even comparison. This is two parties agreeing to protect one party, whereas NATO and the EU are all parties agreeing to protect each other... but like I said, I don't know if they'd actually come to defend anything - but I am certain that NOT doing so would have reprecussions on the entire integrity of NATO and the EU as a whole - they'd fall apart. Also keep in mind that if Poland for instance is invaded, Germany and western europe will have a flood of immigrants + is suddenly next to an aggressor as well.
