God, I hope that's more than just rhetoric. Let the shock of the US's unforgivable betrayal lead to serious action from Europe.

If EU plus UK follow through with their rhetoric, there will be no need for an exclusionary bilateral deal between the US and Russia.
Correct, that's the only way out of here where EU keeps its dignity, Ukraine keeps its ass, and US looks like a pathetic clown jerking off in the corner after trying to spank Ukraine on global stage for being a "shiti bitch"
It is some what of an opportunity for EU to assert itself a Great Power able and willing to protect its interest IN ITS OWN BACK YARD.
I have doubts EU will come together, Germany is not on board due to their oligarchy is not interested in this arrangement.
EU itself can probably still do it but it will a lot harder.
Germany has zero incentive to play for EU here though... they got 40k US troops in Germany, Russia won't ever bother attacking them and they could be buying that cheap Russian gas again if Trump flips into Russia ally, which is a real risk now.
