Europeans volunteered troops in Afghanistan to help America fight Al-Quaida. When America was not right about invading Iraq, European nations tried to help America to see the truth. When America took on Libyan dictator Kadhafi European nations provided some air support.

Europe helped America when they could and when they thought it was the right thing to do.

After 9/11, America had a brief moment of world support that we royalty screwed up. But that was only because we were attacked. Besides that its all nations for themselves.

And even today, if the UK or Germany [just examples] were attacked in the same way, America would send troops under the same circumstances.

That's certainly Trump's claim, along with the Norway/Denmark joint government issuing Nobel prizes.

Do you feel Europeans have a better friendship with Canada for example? I mean before Trump was elected of course.
