Pros of Leaving NATOCons of Leaving NATO
- Reduced Financial Burden – The U.S. contributes the largest share to NATO’s budget, and leaving would free up billions of dollars for domestic priorities.
- Avoiding Entanglements – NATO’s collective defense policy (Article 5) could drag the U.S. into conflicts that may not directly serve its interests.
1. Increased Security Threats – Without NATO, the U.S. could face greater security risks, as adversaries like Russia and China may feel emboldened to challenge Western interests.
2. Economic and Trade Consequences – NATO fosters economic stability and strong trade relationships. A U.S. exit could strain diplomatic ties and impact defense industry profits.
