In addition, in the fall of 2023 , russia finally withdrew from the Treaty on Conventional Armed Forces in Europe (CFE).   

In response , NATO countries in a joint statement announced their intention to suspend their participation in the treaty indefinitely.

The agreement set quotas on the amount of military equipment that signatory countries could have, including tanks, artillery, helicopters, and airplanes.
