This has lead to Brussels genuinely believing that the Euro could be a viable alternative to the US dollar. At first glance, that sounds absurd and to a large extent it is. But perception matters, and the current weakness in the USD/UST complex gives Europe belief in the illusion that it can step up and fill the gap.
