      You meant to use jilted (as in jilted lovers) - gilted means covered in a thin layer of gold… and if you wanted gilted you’d probably be better of using gilded which is a much more commonly used word for essentially the same connotation of richness.

      This is such an amazing move, a bunch of eu countries don’t owe the us any loyalty and probably wouldn’t mind serving china’s interests

        It’s not about serving China’s interest so much as no longer serving American interest. As an example, Biden persuaded its partners in Europe and East Asia to exclude China from crucial chip technology. If China changes its approach to Ukraine sharing this technology with them should be on the table. There’s is simply no longer any reason for Europe to be part of this Cold War-like tension between the US and China, when it’s Russia that is our main concern.
