Lumping two non consecutive presidents together gives a misleading sense of continuous movement in one direction. Four year blocks are fine, but show all of them for the range and in chronological sequence

I'll be honest, the UN vote index is not particularly convincing when making claims about "geopolitical centre"

This almost makes it look like Trump is actually working for China.

Hmm

Even Israel wants none of that.

Good to see Germany taking a stand in both actions and words.

Meanwhile, Denmark barely having moved while proclaiming that they most definitely maybe perhaps will move to non-american systems. Fukken bootlickers*.
