Thank you for highlighting the hypocrisy and disingenuousness - and outright LYING that is done by the US and NATO on the regular.
Do you not recall that when NATO and the US decided to station the Aegis Ashore (dual use) missile batteries in Romania and Poland, they claimed it was to defend Western Europe from IRAN?
From Reuters:
"As long as Iran continues to develop and deploy ballistic missiles, the United States will work with its allies to defend NATO,” said U.S. Deputy Defense Secretary Robert Work, standing in front of the shield’s massive gray concrete housing that was adorned with a U.S. flag.
Despite Washington’s plans to continue to develop the capabilities of its system, Work said the shield would not be used against any future Russian missile threat. 'There are no plans at all to do that,' he told a news conference."

Did you believe them when they said this? Obviously not. Indeed, everyone knew that those missile batteries were there to threaten Russia.
