    You might need to update your list of countries outside of the US’ sphere of influence - those are both close allies. :)

      Yes and no

      Close allies? Yes

      Able and willing to tell the US to fuck off if they feel like it? Also yes.

      Both also have a lot of power/sway over the US.

          Yeah, they’re not going to protect a fleeing fugitive who isn’t useful to them anymore.

          Man is going to Russia for sure.
