What does that have to do with anything?
Hand which feeds the state controls the state, its decisions even of strategic nature, policies etc. IMF, WB, crediting western institutions, investments funds are weaponized means of control.
How many countries are in debt?
Not IRI, DPRK, Russia and China also have minimal foriegn debts (public+private). Surprisingly all of these are villains of the world.
Does the U.S., France, UK, Germany, Pakistan, etc not have their own political agenda?
EU does what suits the Zios and Neocons, basically the power block inside US and pretty much entire western world (and their pups in other parts of the world). It has been same for past 70-80 years since WWII.
One big marker is how quickly post WWII, these countries switched from their own industrial sectors to foreign debted service sectors. Formula for destroying sovereignty.
US case is different, the massive financial giants call it home so state is controlled by them. Who do you think is attacking us? Trump or power trident of zios + neocons + corps that control the US state?
Nations do what’s best for them whether you agree with it or not.
Had that been going on, world would have had 8-10 superpowers atleast along with 20 great powers but thats not happening. Majority of the planet including resource rich ancient countries are poor as hell, always being attacked from outside, fighting foriegn wars on their own soil for mere survival. Rest end up debted, controlled from outside so rarely progress.
