It’s a statement of reality that capitalist entities look after their own financial interests. Even where charity, or aid, comes into it this is often for PR or other political reasons and almost never some grand selfless act.
To expect a trading bloc of 27 nations to do anything other than strike the best deal they can for their own interests is simply delusional.
I’m sorry you feel that is sneering.
