So basically you are saying NATO should be the world police
No. Should rephrase: ONE of the contributory factors to Russian aggression is perceived continued inaction from NATO.
My real point is: to say NATO are to blame for current Russian aggression is absurd. Russia invaded because they believed Ukraine would receive no help from outside and taking Kyiv would be easy. It's the same with Ukrainian nuclear disarmament. Ukraine got rid of it's nukes to passify Russia. In fact, Ukrainian lack of nukes made the invasion more likely.
The single biggest reason remains Putin himself and the expansionist nationalism he has fostered.

So basically you are saying NATO should be the world police. I hope that is not what it becomes. UN should have more muscle to sort these things out.
