Looks like the U.S. does need Europeans (or at least the UK) to be able to reach out to its other theatres. But Trump, Vance, Rubio, Miller, et al will tell Europe that America is there to protect, not use…...
Hybrid warfare against numerous NATO nations for years.
If you’re okay with the metric that there are no little green men in any current NATO nations, that’s your prerogative.
