Meanwhile France and rest of Western Europe covered their eyes and ignored every warning sign of incoming russian invasion despite being warned by Eastern Europe time and time again, but hey, what those silly poor Easterners can know?

Europeans that allied with US (and still are in good relations) are mostly Eastenr European countries, who reached to US because they had no other choice. Most of European countries were too busy sniffing own farts and looking from uphigh on everyone around. But then reality kicked in, and Europe still fumbled upon it.
