US Vice President JD Vance has called on European states to show greater independence, urging them not to be US “vassals.” He also said EU governments could have done more to oppose Washington over the Iraq War.
To be honest I wasn’t even alive when the Iraq war started so I have no idea, but looking back the pieces (immigration from the Middle East to Europe being easy, ethnic and religious rivalries in Iraq getting ugly, America’s inability/unwillingness to install stable governments abroad) were all there so anyone in a relevant EU role who didn’t see it coming should be fired.
