The new president of South Korea, Lee Jae Myung, and Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba have tried to leave old feuds behind and look to the future at a Tokyo summit.
Most of these have actually quite different political systems. e.g. Putin’s Russia is a dictatorship, while Ukraine is a somewhat imperfect democracy that has been on the road to become more similar to EU countries. Trump might despise Canada, but is that true for Biden and other prominent Democrats, too? Was that true for pre-MAGA Republicans? Either way, Trump’s USA is a rightwing dictatorship while Canada is a democracy.
Also, even if a set of relatively similar countries isn’t actually friends, it would still be very beneficial for most them, certainly more beneficial than going to war with each other.
It doesn’t work this way. At all.
Russia and Ukraine have many similar things. And what?
Half of Afrika shoots each other while being indistinguishable from an outsider’s point of view.
USA despises Canada while Canada helped USA many times and the last war between them wasn’t even between them but between metropolias.
Want me to provide another hundred of examples?

Canada: the only American enemy to actually burn down the White House. Nevar forget! /s
