Former President Donald Trump's suggestion of an American withdrawal from NATO has raised concerns in Europe, as Europeans worry about their ability to ensure their own security without US intervention. The potential withdrawal could undermine the heart and soul of the Alliance and lead to dire consequences. Europeans believe that they lack the means, logistics, and equipment to maintain credible deterrence and defense posture against Russia. The United States offers critical assets such as intelligence, reconnaissance and surveillance, strategic air transport, in-flight refueling, deep strike capabilities, anti-aircraft defense, and space-based observation and communication. These assets are essential for Europe's defense and security.
