Even if it's true that NATO gradually violated a promise not to expand from 30 years ago, saying that that means it's NATO's fault that Russia invaded Ukraine now, or that diplomacy is the solution in the middle of a war that has already started, just doesn't really make sense.
I mean sure, if Russia would agree to get out of Ukraine in exchange for NATO not enlarging I guess that would be great, but it's a little late to say that talking about that is the solution after Russia has already invaded Ukraine. You just don't get to randomly invade neighboring countries because other countries may have happened to violate various promises years ago.
