I don't know, with that argument you can argue that everything is dependent on everything, for instance, the EU automobile industry is hugely dependent on materials and chips from all over the world including US and thus real independence is a pipe dream.

This is one of the reasons we were wondering if the US can switch off our fighter jets. The ones we own, brought from the US.

The US clearly state that extraterritoriality is fine with them. Depending on the company, one gag order is enough to sabotage a whole company.

Of course you know, the US government can use many methods to enforce their demand, it makes no sense to use an Amazon alternative to Amazon, it's such a nonsense to join a conversation about migrating away from Amazon suggesting that.

It is. And China have been the only ones intelligent enough to have understood this very long ago. They also show that while entire independence on their scale may be a pipe dream, getting close to it is feasible.
