Since NATO is a defensive alliance it has not pushed anywhere.
Don't be silly OP... You know it is NATO that's been pushing hard eastwards and also down south since the early '90s to land-grab whatever they can. It was all in Brezinski's "The Grand Chessboard" and the plan was to take over the entire Eurasia.
A quick proof of this out in the open… compare a map of NATO members and partners today, with what it was in 1992.

Something which the rest of the world isn't trying to cover up by pretending it isn't sooo…

Bad timing
Against this backdrop, the tragedy has also raised renewed questions of base security, with outrage that the armed soldier who reportedly deserted his post triggered no notice or alarm by Russian military personnel at the base.
Although this tragedy has prompted a new challenge to Armenian-Russian relations, it is also exacerbated by a second factor, timing.
The timing of this tragedy could not be much worse, for several reasons. First, in 2013, in what many perceived as Russian pressure on its so-called "strategic partner", Armenia was forced to scrap its planned free trade deal with the European Union in favour of joining the Russian-led Eurasian Union.
Second, a steady supply of arms and advanced weapons systems to Azerbaijan from Russia has sowed further distrust.
So you are stating that all nations that are a part of NATO were invaded by NATO forces and forced to join?

The BRICS alliance of 80+ nations will show the US that raw resources matter more
than ink and paper or punching numbers into a computer.

As I stated please educate yourself on the topic before making false claims.
I didn't make that map of NATO expansion, the web is full of them.
Full
The only thing "false" about that is your claim it is false.

Some people posting on here have agendas, and the truth sometimes
gets a bit bent out of shape.
The fact the FBI and other alphabet agencies have 500+ paid bloggers
is just one road sign on the path to "manufacturing consent"...
Xcath may or may not be one, or the propaganda is just working for him.

Right...
NATO is a defensive alliance and nations can join and leave as they see fit.
As I stated please educate yourself on the topic before making false claims.
