    What’s the difference though? It would essentially be the same thing as NATO just without the US and Canada. We’d still have the same commitments. Canada is a reliable partner and it’s only really Trumps reign where the US has been a bit weird but ultimately it’s still a huge strength to have the US within the pact.

      That the US cannot lead the EU into invading Iran under fake pretenses which I expect any moment now.

      In case you haven’t noticed, the EU is incredibly dependant on American weapons and are constantly getting blackmailed by it.
