One of the concerns held by Europeans about the Safety case for the resumption of flying is the dual role of the FAA. Whilst no-one is saying that EASA and National Safety organisations in Western Europe are perfect - far from it - at least their drivers are clear. Safety, safety, and safety, in that order.
The FAA's drivers are not so clear. they also have to "promote" Aviation in and for the USA.
Not so fast there
The FAA has directorates and various disciplines to meet the needs of the public (you get what you pay for through the good graces of who you elect in congress)
Fortunately the safety part of the FAA works under codified standards harmonized with Western Europe. So there is nothing about this that is any different between societies other than the source of who pays for what and how.
I dare say that the FAA directorates responsible for adminsitering the same rules that Western Europe does, would expect that safety safety safety drives them as well.
