WASHINGTON (Reuters) -The United States will phase out some security assistance for European countries near the border with Russia, two sources familiar with the matter said on Thursday.
The plan comes as President Donald Trump pursues his "America First" foreign policy, in which his administration has slashed foreign aid and is pushing European countries to cover more of the cost of their own military.
