How much of that US military spending actually protects us, and how much is about projecting US power?
We have nukes in Europe. We have modern, powerful militaries. I'm sure if push came to shove, we could fund Ukraine ourselves.
While of course it's nice to be able to work with the US, I'm sure if you asked every social democracy would be keen to point out their independent deterrent. Some of them are on the front line with Russia, and their domestically developed weapons are world class.
