NATO Preps Long-Term Measures to Support Kyiv Amid Potential Trump Victory
These measures have been in development for several months but gained urgency after President Joe Biden‘s underwhelming performance in a televised debate with Trump
NATO countries are gearing up with long-term support measures for Ukraine, anticipating a possible victory by Donald Trump in the upcoming US presidential election.
This preparation is set against a backdrop of rising right-wing influence in Europe, The Wall Street Journal (WSJ) reports citing the sources.
NATO plans to send a senior civilian official to Ukraine to coordinate military logistics.
Additionally, a new command center will reportedly be established in Wiesbaden, Germany, to oversee the delivery of military equipment and weapons, as well as the training of the Ukrainian Armed Forces (AFU).
According to the WSJ sources, approximately 700 US and other NATO countries military personnel will participate in the operation, dubbed “NATO – Security Assistance and Training for Ukraine.”
This team will assume roles previously handled by US forces following Russia‘s full-scale invasion of Ukraine.
