    I don’t think theyd align with China either. The whole point of he EU was to maintain defacto independence during the cold war. If anything I expect them to invest more into ECOWAS and possibly try to stabilize + integrate Libya into their order.

      France is already using Nigeria to recolonized the AES. But the EC was created to coordinate european armies against the soviet union (there was a failed european defense community that would have made a european army subservient to the commander of NATO), independence from the us was only a goal by french and british (at first) elite. European unity has it historically developed to further US influence.
