NATO serves to bolster US interests though, and having an all out nuclear war is not what US oligarchs want as Trump victory shows. So, I think there's a very good chance they cut their losses. It's not like Europe wouldn't be dependent on US without NATO at the end of the day.
NATO's 2 largest intrests where to collapse the USSR, and to ensure Europe stayed dependent on the United States, it has done that, the US is coasting off of it, however it very quickly could become too much hassle.
Pretty much what I'm thinking. It's also worth noting that the US sees China as the main adversary, so Europe is losing its strategic relevance.
It also would make sense because even when the US drops Europe, they will still be financialy dependent on them, especialy after the US got them to cut all ties with russia
but for how long? if NATO ended, then who is going to actually stop European countries from going back to Russia and forming new alliances with China? isn't NATO the lynchpin that keeps Europe dependent on the US?
