USA and EU partnering on location
This sounds like a good way to continue the work on Galileo, that has had some issues lately regarding funding and motivation. Through this combination of effort there's also a chance for higher precision, as there will be more satellites up. I've also read that Galileo might provide higher precision than GPS even without such a collaboration, which means there will be a win-win for all, including USA. At least in theory.
