No, I don't quite understand what you are asking. Are you suggesting that Russia is provoking NATO, or vice-versa or neither.

Or both. NATO expansion provokes Russia which in turn acts out which in turn sparks more nato expansion, etc.

Putin only has himself to blame for Sweden and Finland wanting to join NATO.
If he hadn't been such a carpet munching, country destroying, nuclear threatening and unhinged, Parkinson's/cancer riddled Great Dictator, they would have been more than happy to continue with their neutral status.
Putin has and has always had tactical nuclear weapons in the Kaliningrad enclave pointing at everyone in the region. He's provoking the Western alliance.
He's a bully, a thug and has a chip on his shoulder at the level of a chav who beats somebody up because they didn't respect them i.e. fear them. He will go down in history as a toxic failure who's biggest success was bumping-off various oligarchs who had turned against him and were hiding out in England. He only as himself to blame for how the history books will record his contribution to Russian history and diminishing the nation and his Imperial ambitions.
