Questions Arise Over U.S. Capacity to Maintain Global Military Commitments
Concerns are growing among U.S. allies and officials about America's ability to sustain multi-front military engagements amid depleted missile interceptor stockpiles and strategic shifts under President Trump. Moves such as scaling back exercises with South Korea and accommodating China have raised doubts about U.S. commitment and capability, especially in Europe and Asia. European officials privately express skepticism about U.S. defense guarantees, while the White House denies munitions shortages despite ongoing conflicts in the Middle East and Iran.
