No. That and also, there is no scenario where if they did, they would be better off long term. The best they can hope for is immediate annexation by the US of this brand new, non-NATO country.

Just in time for this absolute disaster of an Iran war finally kills off major oil production enough for them to really regret leaving.

Even short term, what are the proposed benefits? Better than universal healthcare? I seriously doubt it.

Legally, maybe not, but what if the U.S. said "We can help you with that"?

Still no.
