      Let’s apply that question to the rest of the world. Why the Middle East? Why Eastern Europe? Why Asia? Why Latin America?

      Same reasons as EU, Russia, and China. Global economic/military partners rather than global competition/enemies.

        Lmao is that why the US’s entire existence is built on invasions, coups, sanctions and genocides in countries on completely different continents for not being subservient to its capitalist government?

      It needs a ‘base’, at every part of the world, which would become a hub for any kind of future deployment. Anyway, it’s not just the US, it can be any powerful countries. It just matter of how they do it, nice or not so nice way, direct or indirectly. China does it through business, e.g. silk road.

      Because we’re all human and protecting innocent lives shouldn’t end at one’s borders.

      Edit: Sorry. We’re not all human and protecting innocent lives should end at one’s borders.

      Thanks downvoters for making me see the light.
