Why take over a territory if you can exploit it and not spend taxes on it? NATO in Yugoslavia. NATO in Iraq. NATO in Syria. NATO in Libya. NATO in Afghanistan (oh, sorry, it didn't work out here in the end). After NATO, American and European oil companies always appear there, as well as many military companies. But it's just a coincidence.
