At the same time, Medvedev suggested that Washington could take more limited steps – for example, reduce its military presence in Europe or reduce support for allies.

The statement came amid a new wave of concern in Europe after Trump's words that he is "definitely" considering the possibility of the US leaving the Alliance. It is this uncertainty, and not just a legal withdrawal, that is already creating tension within NATO.
