Arguably Russia is not thinking self as empire, but as domain feeding the empire, and if so, made the calculation of consequences, immediate and into the future, then acted accordingly

NATO is out

All eyes on USA

Should USA do rug pull on Ukraines, would be similar to the rug pull done earlier in Afghanistan, the difference being Ukraine was tee-ed up 2014, arguably, whereas Afghanistan was tee-ed up 20+ years ago

Russia figured that USA was not even willing to spare 2500 troops for a few more years to hold on to Afghanistan, that which is so so close to Russia and China for jumping off purposes, then reasoning goes assuredly USA will do rug pull on Ukraines.
