NATO Nation's Fico Defends Trump's Troop Withdrawal From Russia's Doorstep

NATO Nation's Fico Defends Trump's Troop Withdrawal From Russia's Doorstep | 'Europe Got Too Comfy' Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico backed the U.S. President’s decision to scale down American troop presence in Eastern Europe, calling it a “pragmatic and rational move.” Speaking in Visnove, Fico said Europe had “lived luxuriously” under U.S. military protection and must now learn to be “more efficient” in its defence spending. He mocked the European Union’s weapons purchases from the U.S. and declared Slovakia will not contribute “a single cent” to Ukraine’s military funding in 2026–2027. Fico’s comments come as Romania confirmed troop reductions and Poland awaits clarification from Washington. Watch.
