I'm sorry, but we simply do not want to rely on the US until the end of times. As a very pro-europe person I would love to see a strong united Europe capable of standing on its feet and being able to compete with other geopolitical superpowers. This js specially relevant in today's world with the rise of authoritarian regimes such as China.
This does not mean that "US bad" or that we see the US as an opponent. Rather we want to remain allies but an alliance between equals, not a one-sided alliance where one of the parties has all the power. Plus, we want to be able to truly contribute to mankind's exploration of space and achieve amazing things, like the US and Russia have been doing for decades now.
