Are you?
Americans like to repeat that and certainly believe it but is it still as true as it was?
It’s probably still true military but in term of influence the USA is less relevant by the day. You weren’t very successful at convincing developing countries to sanction Russia for exemple.
- kyleee 4y agohow much less relevant by the day?
- throwaway6734 4y agoYes. The US is one of the largest producers of oil, a large exporter of food, and a large exporter of tech. None of those sticks were used against developing countries to get them to sanction Russia because currently there's no need
- qwytw 4y ago>weren’t very successful at convincing developing countries to sanction Russia for exemple Arguably US was even weaker in that regard during the cold war. E.g. the response to the invasion of Czechoslovakia was much weaker in every regard. Granted there weren't many soviet billionaires to sanction but sending weapons there would have been inconceivable (especially on this scale)
