If a country becomes weak it therefore can afford less and less global support
Global cooperation is important, especially on climate change, however, the neoliberal idea of outsourcing all work via unrestricted free trade is painful for (poorer people in) rich countries and neo-colonialism for poor countries.

Both must be considered dynamically. On some issues, domestic action must be prioritised and on others a foreign policy approach is necessary. The proportion of prioritisation is balanced on a complex web of variables: political, economic, social etc. A government may have to enact policy changes to protect citizenship from external problems but this does not equate “deprioritising” foreign cooperation.
