Its not expansionist because you have to request to join.

The only objecting countries whose wishes you're referring to are nations who want to invade potential NATO members.

Bzzzzt wrong. NATO is expansionist because it pressures non-member states and routinely starts proxy wars.

The only countries whose wishes you're referring to are nations who want to invade potential NATO members.

Bzzzzzt wrong. Western Hegemony damages the Global South and NATO keeps member-states unaccountable.

You think Russia is working for NATO?
