People from Europe: Since the US is moving away from the western world we know, who do you see us collaborate more with in the future? (lemmy.ml)

For me it would probably be Canada. Seems like we share alot of values with them, and we could do more trading than we do today.

Especially if they also will have tensions with the US, it would be a win win.

But what do you guys think? Northern Africa would be an obvious choice in the future, but I don't know if they're ready.

PS. This is not a post talking about leave the US entirely. Ofc not. It would just be better for us to work with others and expand our worldview a little.

Russia. It's not just Trump going into weird directions. The US is losing power as a whole and the only countries losing power quicker are it's allies.

The US is losing power for sure, but not slower than it's allies. Europe can't just plug and play the US immediately, but they have considerably less problems than Americans.

And just to be clear: I'm not advocating for a US boycott. Just less cooperation than today.

less problems

We EU citizens are on the verge of collapse as we're about to starve the goose laying the golden eggs,
the German car industry, in favor of US subservience.
