Donald Trump expects a more active European participation in the long -term support of peace in Ukraine.
The Pentagon spokesman said the United States aims to limit himself to minimal participation in issues of guarantee Ukraine security. On Thursday, August 21, Politico writes.
It is a apparent signal for European allies that they will need to take the main responsibility to ensure a stable world after the Russian invasion, says the publication.
The Deputy Minister of Defense of Politics, Elbridge Caulbie, announced this position at a meeting with a small group of allies on Tuesday night. The event was led by General Dan Kane, the head of the United States Chiefs of Staff. Representatives of Great Britain, France, Germany and Finland have turned to the American side with the request to clarify what kind of support Washington is willing to provide – both in the context of military and aviation forces – to ensure a potential peace agreement between Ukraine and Russia. Such information was sent by an European official and a resource that was aware of the details of the meeting.
It is noted that the two immediate organized meetings held in Brussels and Washington have only strengthened the remembrance of allies in the fact that President Donald Trump expects Europe’s more active participation to participate in the long -term guarantee of peace in Ukraine.
“It is clear that it is Europe that it will give it to the earth. The United States does not take clear obligations,” said the NATO representative.
NATO secretary Mark Rutte, who participated in discussions in the White House, informed 32 countries-member countries in Brussels on Wednesday, showing the main direction of future guarantees. In the future, it is expected a more detailed video conference at the level of defense departments.
The initial alliance plans should work for further consideration of political leaders, the article reports.
“Military planning in Europe is now suited to any scenario, in accordance with diplomatic efforts,” said NATO diplomat.
Note that by the end of August, a strategic meeting was held in the White House with the participation of the President of Ukraine and the leaders of the United States, France, Germany, Great Britain, Italy, Finland, as well as the leadership of the European Commission and NATO. Security issues guaranteed for Ukraine were discussed.
Donald Trump has confirmed the United States’s readiness to participate in guarantees, but emphasized the need for further participation of European partners, while excluding the possibility of sending the US military to Ukraine.
It is now reported that Italy’s Prime Minister Georgia Melony has proposed an alternative format of collective assistance in Ukraine. His plan does not provide for NATO membership, but must contribute to strengthening the country’s security in military aggression conditions.
