What european "interests" does washington have in mind when he warned against forming permanent alliances with any foreign country?

In 1796 Farewell Address of President George Washington, he warned the citizens that the forces of geographical sectionalism, political factionalism and the involvement of foreign powers in the nation's affairs will threaten the stability of the Republic. The European interest that Washington has in mind is to protect the nation from the possibility of foreign influence and corruption. This will change the policy of one country subject to the policy of the other. He said that Europe has a set of interests which are not related to our nation. He also stated that foreign influence is alarming to an enlightened and independent patriot.
