I actually think that the US are just acting like the lions they are. And they are asking for their share…

But in the long term, multilateralism is definitely a better approach, for everybody.

Let’s hope they don’t get more imperial…

Are the USA a partner?
This would be the goal, to be partner with all the world and no war. Present US administration (bush) makes this impossible.

However there are good trade possibilities with USA. The EU could make some demands for instance reduce Nuclear and other bases in the EU. Ask the US to reduce it’s pollution, in respect to global warming and environment, water quality etc.

EU is now big, and for that reason can make some demands in it’s own best interest.
