He didn't care about NATO, all he did was to use lies to manufacture the case for Ukraine invasion because Russia badly needs the resources in Donbas. Putin could withdraw from Crimea tomorrow (and he'll probably use that as leverage when the time comes) but will never leave the Donbas unless forced to by spectacular military defeats. Crimea is indeed strategically important, but the Donbas is also a very rich area that Russia wants to keep at any cost.
