It's definitely not colonization, but I'd still say it's aggressive expansion. We just happened to make people think it was a good thing.

Looking back now, I'm not so sure it was the net good it was sold as.

the net good is that the USSR didn't overrun Europe after WW2 and they could have easily if the US hadn't set up camp. It may have even still happened without the atomic bomb as a deterrent.
