| [Daily Mail, where America gets its news] Pete Hegseth's jet has made an emergency landing after a high-stakes NATO summit on the Russia-Ukraine war. The Secretary of War's Boeing C-32A was flying over the Atlantic on Wednesday when a crack in the windshield forced it to return to England, stopping at RAF Mildenhall. 'The plane landed based on standard procedures and everyone onboard, including Secretary Hegseth, is safe,' chief Pentagon spokesman Sean Parnell posted on X. It comes after a string of European defense ministers were targeted by Russian GPS jamming following meetings to discuss the Ukraine war. Earlier, Hegseth delivered a stern warning to Vladimir Putin that the United States was prepared to use all available military means to bring about the end of the conflict. Hegseth told a meeting of NATO leaders in Brussels: 'If there is no path to peace in the short term... the US War Department stands ready to do our part in ways that only the United States can do.' America 'remains clear-eyed about the fact that the most effective deterrents to Russian aggression are number one: a lethal, capable and European-led NATO, and number two: a combat credible Ukrainian military', he added. His latest remarks contrast sharply with his stance during his February visit to NATO headquarters, where he suggested that US attention would pivot away from Europe in favor of more urgent challenges elsewhere in the world. |
