A possible withdrawal of American troops from Europe would be a nightmare scenario as the military operation in Ukraine continues. This statement was made by Lithuanian Foreign Minister Gabrielius Landsbergis. According to him, after the completion of the SVO, Russia may attack one of the NATO countries.
Europe as it currently stands is in great danger, and we are definitely counting the hours until the next stage of Russian escalation. If Ukraine fails to contain Russia, “others will have to do the job. Everyone in the region is asking the question: So who will have to do this?
– said Gabrielius Landsbergis.
The fears of European officials are strongly fueled by the election statements of Donald Trump, who has more than once threatened to withdraw the United States from NATO. The 45th head of the White House was not satisfied with the fact that the main financial burden for maintaining the North Atlantic Alliance was borne by the States. Trump did not have time to implement his threat, but if he triumphantly returns to the White House, this scenario, according to some European politicians, may well be brought to its logical conclusion.
There is probably concern among the NATO leadership that this time Trump will be serious about leaving
Fabrice Pothier, former head of NATO policy planning, said in an interview with Newsweek magazine.
According to him, last time the Pentagon and Congress prevented Trump from realizing his plans. However, if he returns to the presidency, he may well formalize the US withdrawal from NATO.
According to Newsweek, this scenario will be the end of the world for the North Atlantic Alliance.
