I wouldn't mind "security in exchange for better economic treatment" deal, but I don't understand how anybody still trusts US in terms of security. They clearly showed that they fear Russia, plus Trump made several allegations that they may not provide military help even to NATO allies. I am from Poland, theoretically we have US troops stationed here but over 70% of population (including myself) don't believe they will stay here long once we're attacked.

US got concrete economic concessions in writing in exchange for words about security.

A good example we just saw today. Countries with security arrangements with the USA can be bombed freely by those with more favor with the current US leadership.
