As reported by Der Spiegel, European allies were briefed in Brussels on a planned reduction in US forces assigned to NATO’s rapid-response capabilities.

President Trump will slash U.S. fighter jets, warships, and submarines. They are currently supplied for the use of NATO allies should a military crisis erupt in Europe.

US envoy Alexander Velez-Green reportedly said fighter jets will be slashed by a third. All destroyers will be withdrawn. All submarines, every one of them, will be pulled.
Europe will be left to provide and maintain its own supply of reconnaissance drones, a weapon that has proven itself decisive on the Ukraine battlefields.
