Why Europe still needs U.S. troops even if Europeans hate to admit it | How We Got Here
Yanks go home? But not just yet! This is what the anti-American left may have wished for, but when push comes to shove we hide behind America’s apron strings…and money.
Europe loves to complain about American power, until it needs American help.
On this episode of How We Got Here, we look at why U.S. troops never really left Europe after World War II, how the Cold War turned America into the continent’s security shield, and why that shield still matters today. From West Germany and NATO’s eastern flank to Poland, Ukraine, Russia, China and Trump’s pressure on European allies, it is about a very uncomfortable question that is currently facing Europe: can it defend itself without America?
Join Jan Darasz and Marcin Kaczorowski, Deputy Head of the Memory of Nations Foundation for How We Got Here.
