Donald Trump considers pulling troops out of Germany
SUMMARY
Donald Trump is considering withdrawing 35,000 US troops from Germany and redeploying them to Eastern Europe. This move could worsen relations between the US and Europe. Trump is frustrated with Europe, believing it is “pushing for war.” There are around 160,000 US personnel stationed outside the US, with many in Germany. A national security spokesman stated that troop redeployment is always under consideration.
Additionally, Hungary's Prime Minister Viktor Orbán vetoed a commitment to support Ukraine while maintaining a close relationship with Russia. Trump’s plans involve aligning troop positions with NATO countries that meet defense spending goals, addressing his concerns about financial burdens on the US.
