The United States and other western countries are planning to give NATO the reins over the U.S.-led multinational Ukraine Defense Contact Group, claiming that Trump during his presumed presidency would take that power away from the people.
Not only does this move insinuate an expected win for former president Trump for the upcoming election, but it also takes the power a free people have to run this organization, and gives it to the hands of a government authority in fear of … it being under the authority of an elected government figure?
A second U.S. official said that another proposal would give NATO a more formalized seat at the table within the Ukraine group, as opposed to moving it under NATO control. The idea, from the U.S. side, would be to strengthen the ties between NATO and Ukraine for long-term support, the official said.
The Ukraine Defense Contact Group was established in the spring of 2022, weeks after Russia invaded Ukraine in order to bring together defense chiefs from various Western countries to discuss what weapons and other military aid to send to Kyiv. U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin takes the charge of more than 40 nations to discuss how to use our tax money, and now this entire operation is planned to be governed by NATO? Defense Department spokesperson Maj. Charlie Dietz declined to confirm the discussions, saying DOD had “no new announcements to make regarding the format or structure” of the group. Despite this, there is a heavy handed effort to “Trump proof” anything related to the U.S. sending weapons and funding to Ukraine.
