I believe the answer is:

hurrying

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'moving quickly' is the definition.
'hurrying' can be an answer for 'moving' (hurrying is a kind of moving). I am unsure of the 'quickly' bit.

'cheer in government after america withdraws' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'in' is found in the answer.
'government' could be 'g' (abbreviation for government) and 'g' is found within the answer.
The remaining letters 'hurry' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
