Summary

A European Parliament member claimed that the U.S. gave Europe three weeks to agree on Ukraine’s “surrender” terms or risk an American withdrawal from Europe.

Mika Aaltola made the claim on X, but provided no evidence. NBC News reported that Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth suggested a U.S. troop reduction in Europe.

Trump reportedly plans to cut 20,000 troops and demand greater NATO contributions. He has pushed for higher NATO defense spending.

Trump may meet with Putin soon, believing Russia holds the upper hand in negotiations.

      How did the Russians do in Afghanistan?

      Way worse than the US. Even though Russia was next door and the US was in another hemisphere.

        Because the coups the Soviets organised turned out to be unpopular.

          And what was the role of Osama bin Laden in this war?

          I’m starting to get real curious what your views are and how on earth the facts fit together in it.

            And what was the role of Osama bin Laden in this war?

            He had no role at all in the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan. I think he was a boy taking vacations in Europe with his family.
