The United States has reiterated its call for Europe to take over most of NATO's conventional defense capabilities, from intelligence to missiles, by 2027, Pentagon officials told diplomats in Washington this week.
The message, recounted by five sources to Reuters, including a US official, was conveyed at a meeting in Washington of Pentagon staff overseeing NATO policy and several European delegations.
Shifting this burden from the US to the European members of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization would dramatically change the way the United States, a founding member of the post-war alliance, cooperates with its most important military partners.
At the meeting, Pentagon officials indicated that Washington was still not satisfied with the steps Europe has taken to increase its defense capabilities since Russia's expanded invasion of Ukraine in 2022.
US officials told their counterparts that if Europe fails to meet the 2027 deadline, the US could stop participating in some NATO defense coordination mechanisms, the sources told Reuters.
Conventional defense capabilities include non-nuclear assets, from troops to weapons, and officials did not explain how the US would measure Europe's progress toward bearing the bulk of the burden.
