Hegseth Launches Review of US Military Presence in Europe, Taking Aim at ‘Free-Riding’ NATO Allies Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth told NATO allies that the U.S. is embarking on a sweeping review of the American military presence in Europe. He also warned that the U.S. would cut American funds to the alliance’s operating budget if allies did not fulfill their commitment to boost military spending. The review will be led by Air Force Gen. Alexus Grynkewich, the head of U.S. European Command, and the assessment has no predetermined outcome, a U.S. official told Air & Space Forces Magazine. Grynkewich also serves as NATO’s top military officer as Supreme Allied Commander Europe.
