Democrats Seek State Role in Europe Troop Review
x/marco-rubio
— 4d
Sen. Jeanne Shaheen and fellow Senate Democrats urge Secretary of State Marco Rubio to ensure the State Department is fully involved in the Pentagon-led Europe Force Posture Review, arguing that ambassadors and diplomats must be consulted to account for diplomatic and alliance implications. Critics warn that sidelining State Department input could strain NATO ties, especially with Baltic states, as Russia intensifies hybrid threats, while the administration maintains an interagency review is needed to balance diplomacy with defense considerations as the review runs toward its year-end conclusion.
