US Starts Review of Europe Military Presence
The United States has begun a "decisive" review of its military presence in Europe, aimed at accelerating the transfer of traditional defense responsibilities to European countries. This move is part of its efforts to strengthen Europe's capacity and resilience to take on a greater role in safeguarding itself within NATO. The step comes after American criticisms of several member states for refusing to allow U.S. forces to use their bases, as well as threats to reduce financial contributions if countries do not fulfill their commitments to defense spending. These commitments include allocating 5% of their Gross Domestic Product (GDP) to security by 2035, of which 3.5% should go towards direct military expenditures.
