The American Conservative magazine argued that the US should stop increasing the defense spending of its European allies. It was stated that this situation could escalate tensions in Ukraine and bring about the risk of a direct conflict between NATO and Russia.
In the publication, it was noted that the US's financial commitments to European defense grant EU countries a greater say in Washington's foreign policy. Furthermore, it was emphasized that due to former US President Donald Trump's statements regarding a potential change in the US role within the alliance, a loss of trust has occurred among allies, and NATO diplomats have shown a reaction against Trump.
On the other hand, a disagreement has begun to emerge within NATO regarding the increase in defense spending and dependency on the US. While NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte supports increasing spending to maintain the US's role in European security, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney emphasizes that allies must develop their own defense capacities to reduce this dependency.
