It is not unusual that India and China are at odds sometimes. It is however a big mystery why EU and USA get along so well. The globe should feel a little too small for these ones.

- wkat4242 4y agoWe don't get along so well. See the data processing agreements that are just ping-ponging in the courts because they are incompatible with EU laws. This causes similar issues with the use of American social media in Europe as the US' concerns about TikTok. It's an uneasy friendship at best. Interest in NATO was also waning, but of course Putin's recent aggression has revitalized this in a big way.
- mrguyorama 4y agoEurope doesn't want to be controlled by the US, but that doesn't mean they don't want to be good friends. They want to be equals, or at least more so.
- dotnet00 4y agoEU and USA have their spats, but overall they share relatively similar values and have similar interests in maintaining the general status quo. Both are content enough with their position in the world to not go around fighting over territory. Lately they're also putting an effort into getting along well because any significant disagreement might bleed into the Ukraine war in some manner.
