Conflict with Russia – US not ruling out more troops in Europe

Date:

Given the conflict with Russia, the US administration does not rule out a continued increased presence of US troops in Europe. We are open to talks about the need for more stationed soldiers.

“Regardless of how this war ends and when it ends, the security environment in Europe will have changed,” Pentagon spokesman John Kirby said in Washington on Thursday. You have to respond to that. “We don’t know what that will look like,” he said.

But they are open to talks about whether there should be a greater permanent presence of US troops in Europe. In due course, the US government will therefore sit down with allies to discuss this. Thanks to troop reinforcements as a result of the war in Ukraine, there are now more than 100,000 American soldiers in Europe, of whom about 40,000 are in Germany.
