Trump considers giving up NATO command that has been exclusively American since Eisenhower

What Happened: Trump is considering relinquishing the U.S.’s 75-year-long role as NATO’s Supreme Allied Commander Europe (SACEUR) as part of a “cost-cutting” military restructuring. The move would mark a fundamental shift in NATO leadership, handing control to European allies while consolidating U.S. European and African commands.

Why It Matters: Handing over NATO’s top command would be a major step toward Trump’s long-threatened withdrawal from the alliance. Military experts warn it would weaken deterrence against Russia, embolden Putin, and gut U.S. influence—all to save a pathetic 0.03% of the Pentagon’s budget. Another blatant gift to Moscow.

not the point. The post "fall of the iron curtain " and democratic movements in former eastern boc, de facto established (with western help) a buffer zone between russia and europe/NATO.. similar to creation of belgium in 1832 (see how that worked out) by UK and France... take US out of equationm, russia moves on , take your pick, Finland, Latvia, estonia,poland,. and NATO article 6 is invoked. US refuses, and voila, pan european war. china will sit it ut and deal with whoever wins.
