talking about NATO -expansion- probably is misleading, country need to ask for NATO membership, and under precise conditions and procedures can join. The first to join after 2000 are baltic republics, because they know well the true situation at the Kremlin: Gorbachew perestroika has passed like a meteor (or like a Iskander), not being really supported by US-EU, apart big political appraisal, URSS collapsed, and next US-EU supported instead Elsin, big fan of free-ultraliberal economics, who next chose (really did it?) Putin, and Putin in the shadow of economics crisis in russia (Eltsin legacy) grab all the power ( politics killing and election frauds, global propaganda) and want to step back at the old soviet politics, pure anachronism. So Russia invasion of Ukraine has many causes, but not nato (is like talking of waves on the beach, instead of talking of the cyclone up in the sky), even if US end EU clearly are not saints, but who is at there levels? big geopolitics and economics interest are there. But Putin has chosen to not develop russia as a more modern contry but like an old empire, and using big power over all. pure anachronism.
