The Telegraph cited sources that Donald Trump has repeatedly “warned” Europe must commit more defence spending.

The Telegraph reported, “The US president, who has repeatedly warned that Europe must commit more to its defensive capabilities, is becoming increasingly frustrated that the continent is ‘pushing for war,’ sources close to the administration said.

“About 160,000 active-duty personnel are stationed outside of the United States, a vast quantity of whom are in Germany.”

Brian Hughes the US National Security spokesman said, “While no specific announcement is imminent, the US military is always considering the redeployment of troops around the world to best address current threats to our interests.”

The Hungarian President Viktor Orban has repeatedly blocked aid to Ukraine and during the special meeting of the European Council he blocked the conclusion on support for Ukraine and the Defence of Europe.
