If you aggressively build up your armed forces and try to dominate your neighbours with constant sabre rattling, maybe you shouldn’t be surprised if your neighbours take steps to protect their interests.
If you commit atrocities, genocide, and kill 20 million citizens, dont be surprised when your victim becomes leery at the prospect of you remilitarizing only 3 generations later.
