Last friday, I went to a conference about the ESA and space and it turns out NASA is not interested in even asking ESA for cooperation (a reliable partner) in the Moon program.
That's why the ESA looks at the RKA (Russia) for cooperation (Kliper).

For the moment, the life support systems, the transportation capabilities and the navigation of the ISS (all vital to keep the station alive) are provided by the Russians. Russia is thriving.
