The US only overthrew a few european governments (Italy, Greece, Russia, Poland, Yugoslavia, Ukraine, Georgia). Not enough for them to care.
Western Europeans do not consider slavs Europeans.
FYI literally nobody in ex-Yugoslavia believes this, not even the most hard-line "yugonostalgic" leftists.
It's not about believing or not. I'm from an ex-Yugoslav country. Why were all of the leaders pro-US and supported by them during the civil wars? You could argue that was the only alternative, but getting foreign support during a separatist war means things. If we are talking FRY and the 2000s protests, what do you think bombing civilians does and do you know the background, training and backing of the organization behind the protests (Otpor)?
Again, I'm sure a lot of them are glad they got US support and such, but pretending the US (and Europe of course) didn't meddle into internal politics during Yugoslavia and had a considerable influence for it's downfall is just not true.
What? Are you into cuckolding too?
