Estonian Defense Minister Hanno Pevkur has no doubt that in the event of a Russian attack, the United States will come to his country's aid. He reports this to UNN with reference to Reuters.

Yes, I trust the US, and yes, I trust all our allies
He noted that the US needs Europe for its armed forces just as Europe needs the US. Hanno Pevkur also stated that he does not believe in the possibility of NATO's collapse and compared the current disagreements in the Alliance to a long marriage.
There are no 50 years of smooth sailing. There are disagreements and problems, and they need to be resolved. At the same time, Europe is not yet ready to provide for its military defense on its own. Have we achieved what we aspire to? No. All of us in NATO need to invest more in defense
Pevkur also noted that NATO should focus on helping to end the conflict in Iran. He argued that this would allow the US to once again pay more attention to Ukraine.
Once this issue is resolved, it will be possible to focus more US attention on Ukraine. For our region, this remains the main problem
