I don't know about US but EU has a bunch of news agencies that are fairly credible. Some local smaller ones don't have a reason not to be.
The international community in the picture is all that matters. Change the size of the countries in the map by the size of their economies and that's all that matters. Change it by the factor of their diplomatic influence and the change would be even greater.
What a tone deaf world view.
If you ever talk about an international community, these are the only countries that actually COMMUNE. Almost all the rest are too involved with themselves to have a diplomatic strategy beyond their narrow short-term self interest. That's also why that's the only international community that matters. That's not a tone deaf world view, that's the reality.
No, these are the only countries that destabilised entire continents to get what they wanted in the last few centuries and now they wash their hands off of them. The countries that are left behind are still trying to clean the shit up the West has created.
No, we aren't talking about the reason for the situation, but the situation as it is.
Oke, let's narrow it down then.
