where it is you were suggesting that foreign policy is, in & of itself, predicated upon racism & racism alone i.e. the subjugation of brown, or colored peoples by your list above; the entire geopolitical landscape would be completely different. the luck of the greater draw so as to say, is that resources are somewhere else, having been maturated perhaps under the feet of, again presumably 'white' feet, then the game is not merely afoot; but on the move, ventured forth & excursionary

were racism-proper to be the "driving force", too many would be trampling over far flung lands already filled with diamonds, gold & oil etc, already occupied by other peoples that had the happenstance befall them, of having been born there whatever their color.

money is the color, and, as a practical matter, the color is green; with respect to the previous sadly, but for the color of the money itself...venture capitalism is color blind.

foreign policy seems then keyed upon: acquisition of resource, venture, capitol formation, free markets (however alleged), and the like. while less to do with racism per se imo.

adding here to make a point: the pursuit of world peace which it would be novel to see in 1st place
