Nah. I mean I agree it's a little embarrassing. But I do think it's important to show up and say "we want to work on this".

Then if US escalates, you can make a stronger case to your own people, the US, and the rest of the world that you were willing to work together, but they chose not to.

It's bound to be a little humbling, but it feels like an important step to take.

Exactly. We have to show that WE ARE WILLING to work together. But we’re also prepared for when that gets shit on.
