I meant it more as a statement of fact, "most of the world is leaving the US behind". You are 100% correct on the "why".

it seems more like the US is leaving others behind due to the expected future realities of a climate-change-degraded/multi-polar-order world and only the global north has the luxury of "leaving"

a huge majority didn't willing enter an agreement and we're witnessing in venezula, bolivia, chile, colombia, nigera, sudan, nepal, etc. what happens when they try to leave the US behind.
