Europe may need up to three years to determine whether it can defend itself without US assistance, according to Bloomberg.
According to the material, European high-ranking officials know they should not rely on the U.S. for Europe's defense, but increasing their own military potential requires determination, which they still need to demonstrate.
People familiar with the preparation process state it will take at least ten more years before Europe can defend itself without external assistance.
Statements by former U.S. President Donald Trump have intensified pressure after the presidential candidate declared he would support Russia's attack on NATO allies who fail to meet their spending commitments.
