Donald Trump stated Ukraine may “possibly” see reduced military aid once he assumes office. In an exclusive interview on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” the president-elect criticized Europe for contributing significantly less to Ukraine's defense than the United States, urging NATO allies to “equalize” their support. The president-elect reiterated that NATO members should “pay their bills” to maintain U.S. participation in the alliance, citing the greater stakes Europe faces in the conflict due to geographic proximity.
