Hegseth warns of withholding NATO funds
U.S. Secretary of War Pete Hegseth announced a new review of American troop deployments in Europe, which includes setting a minimum number of soldiers and consulting Congress within six months, aiming to strengthen America's leadership of European forces and ensure NATO's commitment to defense spending. He also criticized allies who did not support the U.S. in its war against Iran and threatened to withhold certain dues if they did not fulfill their defense commitments, especially given Washington's reduction of its military capabilities within the alliance. This comes amid rising European efforts to bolster crisis forces amid decreasing American contributions.
