McKinsey also works in the EU. Siemens also, and they have a long history of corruption.

So I doubt that it is any better in the EU, just less known. Like Greece and Germany. The greece know there is corruption therefore their place in the corruption index, the germans ignore/don't know of corruption hence the better position in the index. And still who paid the corrupt politicians in Greece? companies like Siemens.

Not to mention that certain types of corruption that are illegal in the modern world are still legal in Germany.

Like giving politicianshigh positions afterwards. Because we know it isn't corruption if you got paid afterwards /s



As I said, corruption will always exists, but still EU water is not as polluted with forever chemicals as the US is, and that's just one example.
