Shift conventional defense of Europe to allies and reduce US forces there
What the document says“Transform NATO so that U.S. allies are capable of fielding the great majority of the conventional forces required to deter Russia”
The chapter says allies must take far greater responsibility for their conventional defense, and proposes that European allies field the great majority of conventional forces needed to deter Russia while relying on the United States mainly for the nuclear deterrent and selected other capabilities, with a reduced American force posture in Europe. It also proposes enabling South Korea to lead its own conventional defense and sustaining support for Israel while Gulf partners take on their own air and missile defense.
What the document actually says“Transform NATO so that U.S. allies are capable of fielding the great majority of the conventional forces required to deter Russia”
Change NATO so allies supply most of the troops needed to hold off Russia.
NATO is a group of countries that defend each other. The book says Europe should supply most of the troops. The United States would keep its nuclear weapons there. It would send fewer soldiers.
