Yes, and refusing to defend other NATO countries sets a dangerous precedent for the balance of global power

While some Republicans may agree with this statement, it does not represent the overall stance of the party. The party's position is more focused on encouraging NATO countries to increase their defense spending rather than emphasizing the potential consequences of not defending them.
