Former U.S. President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's critical views of the European Union are seemingly reinforced by recent high-profile corruption scandals. The "Qatargate" and "Huaweigate" affairs, involving allegations of bribery and foreign influence in the European Parliament, have damaged the EU's reputation. These events, coupled with Netanyahu's accusations of hypocrisy and Trump's trade disputes, suggest a diminished standing for the EU in the eyes of these leaders.
