Britain considers conscription as NATO commitments waver under Trump, says general
General Richard Shirreff warns that Britain's defense plans are changing due to the U.S. under President Trump not committing to NATO's mutual defense. This has led to discussions of conscription in Britain to prepare for potential conflict with Russia. European nations are struggling to unite in response to the threat. Countries like Germany, Italy, and Poland are hesitant to take collective action, causing concern about the future of NATO and European security. Shirreff emphasizes the need for Britain to lead Europe in defense spending and support for Ukraine. He suggests that without significant military mobilization, Britain may not be able to effectively respond to Russian aggression.
