    USA being “world police” is more of a meme than an actual thing. The policing USA does is more to ensure its own soft power and control over the global economy, and not actually taking a principled stand based on morals. Even the current Ukraine adventure is more a game to destroy the russian war machine than to save Ukraine, keeping Ukraine free and independent is more of a side-effect. Not that the EU is much better, I feel the EU is more afraid of bordering russia than genuinely helping Ukraine stay independent.
