Politico reports US allies fear Trump may disrupt the NATO summit in Ankara and have devised a containment plan.

Following a year of internal conflict, allies aim to appease Trump by highlighting increased defense spending, focusing on the defense industry, promising rearmament, and supporting the US stance on Iran.

Belgian Defense Minister Theo Francken stated diplomatic engagement without irritation is the only option. Despite efforts to avoid conflict, Trump remains unpredictable regarding defense spending, US base access, funding, and the Iran-Israel ceasefire.

Security expert Gerlinde Niehus warned that a renewed conflict could force Trump to demand greater European responsibility, overshadowing all other topics.
