WASHINGTON — National security adviser Mike Waltz told The Post Tuesday the US can’t afford to “subsidize” its NATO allies anymore — and added that the defense of Ukraine “must be European-led. ” In a wide-ranging interview to mark President Trump’s first 100 days in office, Waltz affirmed that the administration would back Europe militarily and diplomatically — but would be “demanding at every level. ” “Case in point, look at the issue with the Houthis [in Yemen],” he said.
