The issue of creating an external "security force" to ensure Ukraine's safety in the event of a ceasefire between Ukraine and Russia was discussed during the NATO "Coalition of the Willing" defense ministers' meeting held in Brussels on April 10.
Other relevant topics were also discussed during the meeting. Latvian Defense Minister Andris Spruds highlighted the importance of U.S. involvement in formats like Ramstein, while stressing that European countries must also be capable of effectively combating aggressor states, especially in light of their capabilities and willingness to invest in these matters during difficult times. France and the United Kingdom are already working with their allies on plans to establish a land, air, and sea "security force" that could be deployed in Ukraine. However, diplomatic sources suggest that sending such a force to Ukraine is unlikely, although strengthening NATO forces in neighboring countries could be a viable option.
Concerns about the U.S. commitment to NATO were raised during the meeting. Following U.S. President Donald Trump's recent pause on tariffs against global trade partners, NATO allies are worried about Washington's weakening commitment to the transatlantic alliance. The absence of the U.S. from this crucial meeting has raised questions about the future of the alliance. Rumors about the U.S. stepping back from its primary military leadership role in NATO and reducing its military presence in Europe have intensified concerns.
Diplomatic sources indicate that the U.S. may make decisions to reduce its military forces in Europe. This has led to serious concerns about cooperation and trust among NATO allies, which could pose a threat to the future unity of the alliance.
