The U.S. Department of Defense is preparing to cancel the transfer of high-precision, long-range Tomahawk cruise missiles to Germany, Politico reports, citing informed sources.

According to them, the Donald Trump administration fears that Russia will perceive such a step as an escalation and take retaliatory measures. In addition, American officials are concerned about the depletion of their own weapons arsenals, as the US used "thousands of Tomahawk and Patriot missiles" in the first weeks of the war with Iran.

Pentagon chief Pete Hegseth told Congress in May that replenishing stocks would take "months and years."

The cancellation of missile supplies will leave Germany without the necessary means of defense, Politico sources noted. This US decision comes amidst a reduction in military presence in Europe.

In particular, Washington intends to withdraw thousands of American troops from Germany and generally reduce the number of its fighters, drones, and naval units in Europe.

At the same time, Russia has long deployed nuclear-capable Iskander missiles in the Kaliningrad region. In addition, Russian forces have deployed medium-range Oreshnik missiles in Belarus, which could potentially hit any point in Europe, writes Moscow Times.

    Трамп выводзіць войскі з Германіі і заводзіць іх у Польшчу. І гэта правільна. Тамагаўкі і г.д. патрэбныя тым, хто прыме першы ўдар, а не будзе абсіджвацца ў тыле і выказваць заклапочанасць.
