    As an outsider.

    The EU represents, to me, he only power in the world that has a mostly people focused existence.

    China, currently, is about the glory of China and the ‘legacy’ of Xi.

    USA; is all about American exceptionalism. Trump is driving significant instability; he care only for Trump.

    So work out your differences; be the adult in the room. Help your people, the rest of us need your stability.

    As a side note; Putin is like a scorned lover, the USSR was a big player on the international stage. He resents that Russia is no longer that important. It seems like his expansionist tendencies are to get back to the world power status they once enjoyed.

    As an outsider looking in, who has enough problems of their own to deal with, what kinds of things are the aforementioned “empires” doing to divide the EU? Or is there somewhere I can read about it?

    USA = Trump

    Russia = Putin

    Getting away from them to make another.

    I’m all for EU in theory, but it’s becoming harder and harder to want what they are pushing. Especially the way that they want it.

    It also makes things much much easier to corrupt.
