Wait 5 sec.

Trump will make Euroglobalists like Macron, Merz and Starmer do much more to defend themselvesEuropeans will have to put their money and effort where their big mouths are.After years of working to counter almost every move by US President Donald J. Trump, the loud-mouth European leaders will have to pick up the slack and fend off for themselves in the defense of their troubled continent.Reports are arising today of US’ plans to diminish access to military capabilities for NATO ‘allies’, part of its plan to withdraw from the European security architecture.According to  Euronews, “everything linked to deep strike capabilities will be cut, Euronews has learned. Specifically, this includes US long-range bombers such as the B2 and B-52. Naval assets, including missile-launching submarine and aircraft carriers, will also be withdrawn and re-directed to other theatres.”Donald Trump to cut US fighter jets in Europe by a THIRD in yet another blow to Britain’s defence woeshttps://t.co/zvheqWqe1z— GB News (@GBNEWS) June 12, 2026The New York Times reported:“The United States plans to significantly reduce the aircraft and warships that it makes available for NATO operations in Europe, according to two senior European officials, accelerating America’s effort to scale down the protection it has offered to European allies for eight decades.”US is reportedly reducing its military presence in Europe by planning to cut the number of fighter jets, surveillance aircraft and naval assets assigned to NATO operations pic.twitter.com/3uu4xFqVT3— TRT World Now (@TRTWorldNow) June 12, 2026US TO CUT NATO CRISIS MILITARY SUPPORTThe U.S. plans to reduce military assets available to assist European allies in a crisis, including fighter jets, warships, and refueling aircraft, according to a NATO briefing reported by Spiegel.Under the reported changes, U.S. fighter…— *Walter Bloomberg (@DeItaone) May 26, 2026This decision was reportedly communicated in early June.“The planned drawdowns include: Reducing the number of F-16 and F-15E fighter jets from roughly 150 to 100; Reducing maritime reconnaissance aircraft from 26 to 15 and cutting all eight aerial refueling tanker jets previously available to Europe; Reallocating a missile-launching submarine and an aircraft carrier, along with several warships and scores of jets that join the carrier’s missions; Reallocating one of two groups of bombers previously assigned for Europe’s defense.[…] These details, some of which were first reported in the German news outlet Die Welt, provide the clearest picture yet of the extent to which the Trump administration intends to reduce its commitment to NATO, a military alliance created in the aftermath of World War II. NATO’s purpose was mainly to protect American allies in Europe from external threats like the Soviet Union, and its European members still see it as essential to their ability to deter Russia.[…] President Trump has complained for years about the burden that the United States shoulders in its contribution to NATO. He has repeatedly called on Europe to do far more to defend itself without American support, and threatened to leave the alliance altogether. But his administration had only followed through with one-off announcements about relatively small withdrawals from individual countries — until the June document detailing the sweeping reductions to American support for NATO as a whole.”Read more:BREAKING: Pentagon Halts Some Weapons Shipments to Ukraine After It’s Revealed Joe Biden Depleted US Munitions Stockpiles/*!
