ATO diplomats believe that Europe needs to prepare for a possible US withdrawal from the alliance if Donald Trump returns to the White House.
The prospect of Trump's return to power after the US election is raising concerns in Europe about continued US support for Ukraine and NATO allies. According to The Telegraph, diplomats in NATO countries believe that European capitals need to prepare a plan and review their current defense capabilities.
One European diplomat told The Telegraph that Trump's controversial statements, including his refusal to help allies in the event of a Russian attack, are "a concern."
"Nobody knows what he's going to do next," the diplomat said, adding that NATO countries should develop a scenario to reduce the alliance's dependence on the United States.
A diplomat from another NATO country said that countries like Britain should take even more of a lead in European security, as a possible U.S. withdrawal from NATO would create a "massive gap."

Great. Make them pay their share. Nothing like a threat of leaving them to wake their arse up.
Yeah well if NATO does not pay their fare share they need to GTFO
The US pulled out of SEATO and CENTO. Why not pull out of NATO as well?
Excellent idea. People need to build their own defenses and quit relying on another country to cover their arses. US in NATO or not, it is high time they get ready to defend themselves.
The president cannot unilaterally revoke a treaty; Trump wants the others to meet treaty obligations.
People are hysterical.
Well, President Trump is certainly not hysterical, he’s just inspiring.
Does MSN see this in their Chrystal ball? Or are they just fear-mongering for the Democrats?
Because Oleksandra Zimko has their finger on the pulse. /s
Well the EU Member of NATO is openly destroying the USA.
F um
If Trump repaid their treachery they would all be gone.
This Globalist Shit MUST end.
Perhaps we should. And then if the globalists want to go start their war, not our cows, not our pasture, and most definitely not our 🐂💨💩.
Expose all those the EU , WEF and Globalist have bought to help destroy the USA and usher in a Globalist Fascist World.
It is time to show the world we are still the Land of the Free and tell the Globalists to kiss our Ass.
Its all the Brussels’ EU oligarch Euro-trash “elites” scam to solidify a united Europe and crush national sovereignty.
But....WTF do I know?
Then, withdraw from the United Nations as well.
You know enough, you are totally correct.
But I left out the UN from the vermin list.
Expose em ALL.
Now that is one I think most Americans would support. At the very least stop funding it at the levels we do.
We can only hope
How about we limit our NATO obligation to a maximum of no more than twice the contribution of NATO’s next largest contributor?
(instead of more than 10 times as much...)
So Trump is the opposite of Ronald Reagan?
Reagan kept the peace, because he kept NATO strong
