US to reduce its military presence in Europe – What is the reason?
The United States may reduce its military presence in Europe by less than its allies had expected.
TodayPress TV reports, citing “Bloomberg”, that European countries had previously expected Washington to withdraw 25,000 troops from the continent. However, allies now anticipate that around 5,000 US service members will be pulled out of Europe.
Around 80,000 US troops are currently stationed in Europe. The expected reduction would account for approximately 6% of the total contingent.
