Five major European military powers have committed to taking on greater strategic and operational responsibilities within NATO, emphasizing the importance of U.S. support. The defense ministers from France, Germany, Italy, Poland, and the UK expressed their determination to enhance Europe's role in ensuring its own security during a meeting in Paris. They aim to work closely with the U.S. and other allies to strengthen collective defense capabilities. The ministers highlighted the need for a coordinated approach to share responsibilities effectively, with plans for a follow-up meeting in Rome next March.
