The United States plans to significantly reduce its support for European security in the near future. This involves the withdrawal of a significant amount of American military equipment from the region.

If the United States truly follows through on its plans, Europe will be unable to compensate for the loss of American military technology for the foreseeable future.

‘This includes a 30% reduction in the number of strategic bombers, which European countries don’t have. The number of fighter jets will also be reduced by a third,’ a senior military official told Bloomberg.

You’re on your own, brother

Also, on the delete list, a 75-100% reduction in reconnaissance and attack drones and a roughly 50% reduction in naval vessels. Its implementation is expected in the near future.

What! No war on Russia?

Luckless UK and Europe are now considering how it could wage war on Russia without US support.  

The New York Times (NYT) also writes about the US desire to reduce its commitments to its allies. Journalists reported that they were able to review a document sent by Washington to its European partners in early June.

Among other things, the US will recall about 50 F-16 fighters and all available tanker aircraft from Europe.

The castration of NATO

The redistribution plan will affect one of two groups of bombers, naval reconnaissance and combat aircraft, aircraft carriers, and ballistic missile submarines.

‘These details provide the clearest indication yet of the extent to which the Trump admin intends to reduce its commitments to the NATO alliance.’

A sharp reduction in the American military contingent will impact NATO’s ability. For example, to track the movements of Russian submarines or launch Tomahawk missiles deep into Russian territory.

US Afraid of Putin

The Pentagon would likely refuse to supply Tomahawk missiles to Germany. Cited for the refusal included arsenal reductions due to the conflict with Iran and concerns that Russia would perceive the supply of long-range missiles as an escalation.

Against this backdrop, former US Permanent Representative to NATO Ivo Daalder stated that the United States will continue to distance itself from Europe to avoid getting involved in a war with Russia.

According to him, a ‘disturbing trend’ is being observed: Washington is not deploying high-precision strike systems in Europe. It is also depriving its allies of the opportunity to equip themselves with them, fearing Moscow’s reaction.

Washington is stony broke

The Pentagon confirmed that the plan to reduce US participation in European defense will be implemented.

The Pentagon cited a statement by General Alexus Grinkevich, head of the US European Command (USEUCOM).

According to the head of USEUCOM, Europe is currently too dependent on American military assistance.

Experts noted that the US’s primary motivation for withdrawing from European security is financial considerations.

Trump has repeatedly stated that the US spends the most on maintaining the alliance. He also stressed that in the US strategic vision, Europe is not the main area of ​​American interests.

‘Virtually the entire intelligence system of the UK and EU is tied to American satellites. The coordination of European intelligence services and troops is interlinked by the NATO standards, which are entirely controlled by the United States. Let us hear your comments.
