If Europe has "pulled ahead in infrastructure and policy" then why do they have nothing to show for it? They can't even protect their own sea lines of communication.

Have you been to Europe?

The comparison is stark.

I wish my country had achieved half as much in terms of infrastructure.

And in terms of protecting themselves, if the US stopped protecting Russia, the situation there would be a lot tidier.

Sounds like your only metric is military strength? Then sure, the US dominates, though it pays a lot for that privilege.
