I wonder how much they got just fucked by their own economics ideology. Literally every time i heard someone from EU speaking about it, it’s all the “resources bad, we can just import necessities, we need more financiere and services yadda yadda” - did they really believed in this bullshit so much or it was just cynical compradorship and US bootlicking?
I think it’s a combination of these things. EU leaders drank the koolaid and they were selected for the positions they are in because they’re imperialist bootlickers. Now their whole ideology is unravelling in front of their eyes.
