Why did Russia allow Finland and Sweden to join NATO since that threatens its borders? (lemmygrad.ml)

Russia has some valid casus belli: defense of the russian population in former Soviet territory. NATO having more borders to place nukes are very bad but Nazi-NATO powered Ukraine was worst.

I'd argue Russia already has casus belli to go after Sweden over the terrorist attack on the Nordstream pipelines. But whether they should act upon it is another matter (to which the answer is a blatant no).
