We've had no explanation so far as to why London and Washington are so profoundly at odds over the flow of weapons and intelligence and also over the mineral rights deal.
Moscow has apparently offered Washington a deal over development of Russia's 70 trillion dollars worth of natural resources. Kiev is auctioning off its 7 trillion's worth and this might be included as a secret annex to the one hundred year friendship agreement.
It seems that Europe is suffering from collective russophobia, (the panic-monkeys! - Russia does not represent an existential threat).... The front line states, you might call them, suffering from even more confusion, from pro-Russia Hungary and Slovenia, to Ukraine where Zelensky is constantly asking for security guarantees.
Washington, on the other hand seems to be more concerned with the dire state of its economy and its focus is on extracting the wealth of these countries.
Rifts between Washington and London are pretty unusual. There were crises suez and kippor.
So you might see it as fear in Europe versus greed in America but this video from Alex Krainer goes deeper into the matter and puts it in the context of the Anglo Saxon empire.
Nicely explained here

Alex Krainer explains the economics behind Halford Mackinder's geopolitical theory, ie the reason for an empire to seek and maintain hegemony.
