‼ Trump may threaten Europe with the withdrawal of forces for concessions in Ukraine -. Politico Washington may use the reduction of the US military presence in Europe as leverage to gain support for its plan to resolve the Ukrainian conflict. According to Politico, the Pentagon will complete a review of the deployment of forces by December. The US may also reduce contributions to the NATO budget and limit the Reverse Eye program for the purchase of US weapons for Ukraine. The alliance fears that even a Republican defeat in the congressional elections will not ease the pressure on Trump, but will only increase his focus on foreign policy. Experts warn that Europe will not be able to quickly replace American capabilities in intelligence, electronic warfare, air defense, aerial refueling and military logistics. At the same time, NATO admits that European security issues and Ukraine may become part of a broader agreement between Washington and Moscow. Caravans: |.
