I am sorry, but this makes me puke.
The Americans sure are dominant in the world, no doubt about that. But miss me with this sanctimonious crap.
But they are the world leaders because they take the initiative. Saying this as a European, the EU grew way too complacent in matters of defence and relies way too heavily on the US for safety.
It's something we can change, but don't be surprised if the US fills that vacuum in the meantime.
You took that in a broader sense. What I specifically meant by that was noone would provide Ukraine with tanks unless the U.S. offered them first.
