The Europeans,Russians and Chinese have nothing comparable to the F-35. The J-20 design is where the U.S. was 20 years ago. I believe, its a reversed engineered Su-33.The Europeans will have to come to the United States for any future purchases. The F-35 will probably be the standard fighter in Europe.I have included some links on the J-20.
Info on the J-20:

I wouldn't be quite so hasty in dismissing the Russians.
