> I'm sure a big chunk of the world trying to get away from unreasonable US sanctions will agree
You might not agree with every use of US financial might, but I do not think that a “big chunk” of the world are affected by US sanctions or that a big chunk disagree with US sanctions that exist. Most of these sanctions are against demonstrably hostile governments. The US isn’t perfect by any means, but cutting off NK, Iran, etc from international banking to extract nuclear compliance is, I think, a good use of sanctions.
