You just witnessed our government graphically shit the bed for 6 months on this particular matter. Frankly, I expect similar difficulties in the coming months, because we’re coming up on an election that’s bound to get double extra super fucky for a number of reasons. If any European countries aren’t already accounting for extremely long, politically-motivated, entirely unnecessary delays at best, and Trump admin part 2 at worst, they are quite frankly deluding themselves.
