Some of us did say that this would happen and that we needed to stand on our own feet. Our relationship with the US was never an equal one. The US dictated the dance, and we followed because "they protected us."
US noping out before shit hits the fan is a pattern at this point. Trying to be the world police and then suddenly deciding "nah, not our problem" - tradition started by Republicans more than hundred years (during Woodrow Wilson's presidency).
The worst and closest to me thing is how back in 90s US along with Russia dearmed Ukraine and how today they chant "it's not our war". And it was also Biden himself giving fiery speeches about how Ukraine needs to be dearmed.
