NATO expansion is the exact definition of what you just replied to.

  NATO doesn't "expand". Free, independent, and sovereign countries join NATO because Russia keeps trying to kill them when they don't join NATO. Usually it takes quite a few years of hand-wringing from the NATO side to even agree to consider letting them in.

    Don't you remember when NATO sent tanks into Hungary and Czechoslovakia, forcing them to remain in the alliance?

    Still falls into the definition of the OP.
