EU Says US Not Main Ally, Still Pays For US Wars
Borrell, according to RT, recently declared the US is no longer the EU's 'main ally.' A groundbreaking statement, considering Europe has been largely underwriting US-led military excursions and dutifully following Washington's foreign policy dictates for decades. This comes just weeks after the EU agreed to yet more military aid for Ukraine, following a US-led push, effectively funding a proxy
conflict while its own economies reel. Apparently, being a 'main ally' means paying for someone else's definition of geopolitical stability. This isn't geopolitical recalibration; it's a polite suggestion from a junior partner who still hopes to be invited to Thanksgiving dinner. The EU remains tethered to a defense architecture deeply integrated with US interests, evidenced by NATO's expansive
growth and European nations' continued reliance on US military hardware. Borrell's statement reads less like a declaration of independence and more like a gentle plea for a better discount on American-made weapons.
