NATO is a purely defensive alliance, not a battering ram.

You can definitely see how this isn't true, right? It'd be incredibly problematic to be opposed by NATO and to have NATO creep up to your borders. Superpowers flipped their shit over stuff like this in the cold war all the time. It's not any different today.
