US will stop military assistance to NATO countries bordering Russia - Reuters

To spread: At the end of August, Pentagon officials gave the European diplomats a signal to terminate some security in the field of security to the Baltic countries. The official representative of the military department David Baker said that Europe needs to depend less on the United States, and the US military will switch their attention to other priorities such as protection of their homeland, Reuters writes.

Diplomats were concerned that this decision could add courage to Russian President Vladimir Putin, and on Friday, Russian aircraft Mig-31 entered the airspace of Estonia. It is noted that last week the legislators of Estonia, Lithuania and Latvia urged Trump to review the abolition of some security assistance. "Many of our European allies are among the richest countries in the world.

They are completely capable of funding these programs if they want," the Baltic Security Initiative Program has commented on the White House Representative. It should be noted that there are 32 states now NATO members. Among them are Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, Poland and Finland. In addition, there is a maritime border between the US and Russia, which runs through the Bering Strait.
