Europe finds itself bent over a barrel.
Militarily most of Western Europe is impotent. Only countries that really have a Military left worth the name are France and the U.K. Both of which are pale fading shadows of what they were even a couple decades ago. The UK floating 2 Carriers marked the first major Defense expenditure for Europe in decades. Even then the UK is having issues providing Escorts for them.
Eastern Europe is in better shape Militarily. Only because of Russia sharing a border with them. And the left over trauma of the Soviet Era. Even then the Russians would flatten them if they truly desired to. Regardless of what defenses they put in place.
They rely on the U.S for Defense.
Let's see... Europe put ITSELF in this situation.
Therefore... I don't care. Lesson needs to be learned about leaving yourself at the mercy of your enemy.
I think and feel the same. The vile hatred for Russia and me too willingness to shut down commercial operations in Russia would leave me cold of any emotional friendship towards EU centred business.
As a European... Wait f^&* this I'm not European, just Dutch, I can't help but agree, and I am laughing my ass off all the way.
