China is definitely working hard to have it, maybe copy-paste approach but it is. We in Europe are definitely not cutting edge in general, maybe robotic space exploration but this is changing also rapidly. The problem is Arianespace and France. It's the similar issue to HLS. It's just a way to distribute money without any meaningful vision. Years of denial and ridiculing of SpaceX. The sad part is there is still no vision even when the world moved on.

Maybe a EU level spending package of 1 trillion, for a resilient and equitable space exploration would solve the problem

  Why not, the money printers are still warm, just hit the 'solution to anything!' button again?

  Sarcasm I assume? This would merely be a redistribution of taxpayers money with no end product. EU has form in this.

Robotic space exploration, like our rover that crashed on Mars not a long ago?

  How about Rosetta en Philae? But yes, also that rover.
