President Donald Trump wants a lasting peace in Europe after Russia’s war against Ukraine. And he also wants the United States to remain the world’s superpower, and for NATO to be stronger, not weaker.

But there are reports that new advisers inside the Pentagon are advocating for the president to surrender a key U.S. military role, that of Supreme Allied Commander Europe (SACEUR).

‘We also know that foreign policy isn’t decided only by the president,’ one solider says. Published October 22, 2024 DONBAS, Ukraine—In the fading light of a late October day, Philippe, a soldier with the 68th Brigade, speeds down the road in a small pickup, trying to dodge drone strikes. Beside him, Oleksander, 31, grips an assault rifle tightly, hanging on for dear life to one of the truck’s grab handles.
