The United States plans to withdraw 5,000 troops from Germany
Media outlets such as CBS reported that Pentagon officials believe this withdrawal plan indicates Trump’s dissatisfaction with European allies’ assistance in the Iran conflict. Merkel said on April 27 that the U.S. launched military actions against Iran without a clear strategy, leading to a dilemma and being "humiliated" by Iran. Trump responded on social media that Merkel "does not know what she is talking about," and later stated that the U.S. is studying the possibility of reducing its forces in Germany, with a decision to be made soon. German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock said on the 30th that Germany is "ready for this."
U.S. forces stationed in Germany are a product of the post-World War II Allied occupation and the U.S. global military deployment strategy. Currently, the U.S. European Command and U.S. Africa Command are both based in Stuttgart, Germany. Ramstein Air Base in Germany is a major logistics hub for U.S. military operations in the Middle East, North Africa, and South Asia. According to U.S. Department of Defense data, by the end of 2025, more than 36k U.S. troops will be stationed in Germany. (Xinhua)
