EU folds immediately whenever the USA walks in drunk with its imperialist demands.

Did jack shit during the entire Israel-Gaza situation because the number one rule is to not piss off Uncle Sam.

Even their international trade standards get regularly abused by the US to impose sanctions on anyone they want, without acting like they're responsible.

Pakistan had all these dumbass trade restrictions that magically got lifted the literal day their democratically elected PM was thrown in jail. All of the sudden the IMF (UN, just one example) shut the hell up about gas subsidies and opened the loan book like nothing happened.
