NATO: Europe boosts military, US shifts focus
The article discusses NATO's approach to strengthening its military capabilities in Europe, as European countries take on greater responsibility for defending the continent. Meanwhile, the United States is reordering its global security priorities, focusing more on domestic issues and the Indo-Pacific region. This was emphasized during a dialogue in Iowa, where NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg and U.S. envoy Matthew Wicker confirmed that Europe would bear the majority of the defense burden, continuing support for Ukraine, and increasing defense spending to 5% of GDP over the next ten years. This move is part of NATO's response to Russian threats and growing security challenges, with an emphasis on enhancing European military capabilities—including tanks, ships, and aircraft—to ensure the ability to address threats both in Europe and the Indo-Pacific, and to avoid relying entirely on the United States in future conflicts.
