“it has been claimed”
that sounds convincing.
I agree with that. I would rather see them as Western-aligned allies than what the relationship we have now. Problem is, I hardly recognize what passes for today’s “West” and we are locked in a cold war with forces within our own country that are slowly transforming the United States into something that is no longer united.
Yikes! And the United States locked in a North American Union with Canada, Mexico...and Greenland!
It all looks like a risky venture! :-D
