Ok thanks for the clarification, if you start with ''if you think back of 2016'' and then in the end add galileo as an example, i don't think it's that strange i respond the way i did, pointing out that galileo was long before that. Because saying back in 2016 and then begin about the west not trusting the Us anymore implies that you would think that would be the case from 2016 which i disagree with, just as i think the trust in the us, the EU and other countries stand or falls with their actions. So trust or no trust would more likely come in time periods, expect for major events like Russia's current war.I didn't say the thinking behind Galileo dated back to 2016. The reference to 2016 was pointing to the public discussion of Britain's relationship with the EU in 2016.
Russia invaded Ukraine last year because for one (like most of the world) they where under the impression they would easily win. Secondly because in ''14 ''08 and the years before that they got away with invading neighboring countries. They assumed their where so feared because they have very old nukes that no western country would dare to interfere. Now they are defeaten by old western tech in ukrainian hands. (the m777 howwitzers even without the advanced controls.)
Ik heb hierboven uitgelegd waarom ik dat toch een beetje anders zie.Ik begrijp dat Engels niet je eerste taal is, maar dit is een basispunt.
