Svmuu News According to sources, the Trump administration plans to inform NATO allies this week that the United States will reduce its military forces available to assist European members of the alliance in major crises. Under the so-called "NATO Force Model" framework, member states identify a set of forces that can be deployed in the event of a conflict or any other major crisis, such as a military attack on a NATO member state. Sources say that although the specific composition of these wartime forces is a closely guarded secret, the Pentagon has decided to significantly cut its commitments. Trump has made it clear that he expects European nations to take over primary responsibility for Europe's security from the United States. The message to be conveyed to allies this week is a concrete signal that this policy is being implemented. Several details remain unclear, such as how quickly the Pentagon plans to transfer crisis mode responsibilities to European allies. However, sources indicate that the Pentagon plans to announce its intention to reduce commitments at a meeting of defense policy chiefs in Brussels on Friday.
