>their current foreign and economic policy are largely driven by whether the US or Russia is applying more pressure
Diplomatic resources have been applied towards ruskies since ww2 until the latest developments because they happen to be the big guy next door. When they started to traffic third worlders to our border, we closed it and it's still closed as of today with no plans to reopen in the foreseeable future.

As for the US, I don't see how they have applied any pressure towards us. Having a team seems like a no-brainer for a small nation.
