U.S. to Pull 12,000 Troops Out of Germany
July 29th, 2020Via: Guardian:
The US is planning to pull nearly 12,000 troops out of Germany in a move the Pentagon insisted was about long-term strategy, but which Donald Trump said was to punish Berlin for low defence spending.
Of a total of 11,900 personnel that will be leaving Germany under the proposal, 6,400 will be returning to the US, from where they could be used for rotational deployments in eastern Europe and around the world, while 5,600 will be repositioned within other Nato countries, particularly Belgium and Italy.
