Some Anglosphere countries (USA, Canada, Ireland, Australia) love to add fluoride in water. They say it’s good for people’s dental health.
Europeans (Germany, Finland, Italy, France, Netherlands, Switzeland) think it’s wrong/unethical.
There is actually regular controversy around this

Do they put fluoride in your drinking water ? Are you happy with that?
Germany adds fluoride to table salt. The US does not do that. We do add iodide or iodate to salt for goiter prevention.
Different delivery methods for fluoride, same goals.
Eh, kinda. You can buy table salt with or without fluoride, so I wouldn’t say it’s that comparable to adding it to everyone’s tap water.
Fair. It gives the consumer a better choice than bottled or in-home filtered vs tap water does.
It also dispels the idea that European countries consider fluoride supplementation unsafe, which is implied by the OP.
