The difference is that the US does not recognize the concept of “win-win”. It is all zero sum games for them. In order for the US to gain someone else must lose. This is not the attitude that most other countries adopt.
This is a relatively new thing, even for capitalism. The national bourgeoisie used to have a degree of national interest in developing the nation to mantain their factories, farms, etc even their money capital was physically in their country.
Now their money capital is in its majority invested in western institutions and they straight up have no interest in their own nations.
You act as if this is not the case for every country in the world, past and present with very few and temporary exceptions

Other nations don’t have the clout that the US has.
