The United States can no longer be the guarantor of Europe's security. This was stated at the College of the US Army in Carlisle (Pennsylvania) Minister of Defense of the country Pete Hegseth.
"The time when the United States ... was the sole guarantor of European security has passed. This should have happened a long time ago. Europe should step up militarily and take the lead," Hegseth said, quoted by TASS.
The head of the Pentagon once again noted that the United States would seek from its European allies in the North Atlantic Alliance to increase military spending to the level of 5% of their GDP, since "2% is not enough if we take into account the existing threats."
The United States is considering the possibility of withdrawing up to 10 thousand troops from Eastern Europe, NBC reported earlier, citing American and European officials. We are talking about half of the group of 20 thousand people who were sent by the Joe Biden administration in 2022 to countries bordering Ukraine.
