WP: Europe is preparing to take on military support for Ukraine in the event of Donald Trump coming to power in the US
1281 Sunday, 03 November, 2024, 20:54 Europe is developing an action plan in case Donald Trump comes to power in the United States. Brussels does not rule out that the new US authorities will completely shift the issues of military and financial support for Ukraine to the European Union. This is reported by the Washington Post. The American publication, citing European officials, claims that the European Union has already begun preparations to change the US military support for Ukraine. Brussels is preparing for broader military assistance to Kyiv, NATO has already taken on some of the Pentagon's responsibilities for coordinating military support for Kyiv. Washington's closest allies in Europe are bracing for a possible breakdown in transatlantic relations if former President Donald Trump wins Tuesday's election... To hedge against a possible White House reorientation on Ukraine, European officials have sought to push through aid packages before the November elections. - writes the edition. Europe could also face security problems if Trump decides to remove American troops from European territory. According to European officials, this would be a “devastating blow” because Europe has become accustomed over the years to the fact that the United States provides protection in the event of any conflict. Trump, on the other hand, advocates greater independence for European countries in matters of self-defense. Meanwhile, Kyiv has developed two scenarios for further action in the event of Trump and Harris coming to power. Zelensky's office plans to use internal reserves to continue military operations in the event of Trump coming to power. With Harris, further military support is expected. |
