Immediate areas bordering Rhineland, yes. England across the channel ? Iberians across the Pyrennees ? Italians across the Alps ? Half-heartedly sent token reinforcements from a few of them perhaps (mostly likely just england and iberian states. probably just the iberians), but they would be aware that they're still safe enough from the mongols. They knew they were protected by geography and just too far, and they'll just do minimal gestures to appease Rome. And I will doubt the Scandinavians most.

And no, that wasn't the case with the Ottomans. It was just the christian powers involved in Mediterranean, and excepting France, which actually buddy-buddied the Turks.
