I am still in it for a wonderful green future. Nature and wildlife, but also useful, accessible tech, art, and urban planning. Polish, living in Sweden. I love living in the EU and the values it represents. Fascinated by and open to the rest of the world.

Idk about Belgium, but many non-Turkish car companies have their factories in Turkey, e.g., Renault and Toyota.

A good reminder on the right-hand-side of the plot: Oil is still the top export of the US.
Gas and oil comprise around 16% of US exports:

If you want to BuyFromEU, and not from US, Russia, or Saudi Arabia, promote wind, hydro, nuclear, and solar, and electrification in general.
Note: Data from 2017.
A lot has changed. Especially when it comes to the “Made in China” label.
I know many people who do have all of the above-mentioned appliances electrical. And gas prices are also among the most expensive in the world (this is exactly why our electricity costs more…) ¯_(ツ)_/¯
