They’re no different to China really, China will steal your IP and outcompete you on industrial efficiency, America transfers your IP and threatens you with invasion. It has the same effect ultimately, all your smart people leave and all of your industry is crushed.

is the accusation here that the US is not loyal? or that they have breached a treaty, contract or even an explicit promise? if so which precisely?

Oh it's not an accusation : the US is the least loyal, least reliable ally you could ever have. Every single occasion they've had to demonstrate it, they did. They'll get you in deep shit, use you then leave you.
