The United States is reportedly halting arms sales to its Western European allies as part of a broader shift in military policy, according to undisclosed officials. The Trump administration’s ‘America First’ agenda appears to be driving this decision, emphasizing the stockpiling of critical weapons to address domestic shortages. The Pentagon has identified several systems, including the Patriot air defense system, as being in short nad supply, leading to the suspension of new requests from NATO members. This policy change may impact key allies like Denmark, where a multibillion-dollar sale was recently canceled. Officials have not disclosed the duration of the pause or specific weapons affected, but the move has raised concerns about potential rifts with allies and the weakening of European defenses against an imminent Russian threat.
