It will take a concerted effort by our species. Just as you go on to say that solving aging would require multinational support, why would you limit interstellar travel to a single nation?
The fastest way for us to become space voyagers would be for us to receive that signal from somewhere near Vega that tells us how to build the machine to take us places.
Well I don’t limit it on purpose. But the idea of nations cooperating right now seems a little in the future. Whereas with aging, science will just naturally progress. No changes required to the current cooperative structure. It just happens because that is how science goes. Space is just much more political than biology.
