Isn’t it clearly immoral to sacrifice the interests of the people who elected you to support another nation?

The morality argument here considers countries (defined as government + population) as actors, rather than governments. So the question is rather whether it's immoral for the people who elect a government to demand that it represents solely their interests to the point of sacrificing other people.

That’s not what is happening if it is a tragedy of the commons.
