US President Donald Trump is exploring a plan to reduce America's military presence in NATO countries, particularly targeting allies perceived as 'unhelpful' during the ongoing conflict with Iran. The proposal, reported by The Wall Street Journal, suggests repositioning troops from nations that do not support US military efforts to those that are more aligned, such as Poland, Romania, Lithuania, and Greece. Currently, approximately 84,000 US troops are stationed across Europe. This consideration comes amid rising tensions between Trump and NATO allies, particularly regarding their limited support for US actions against Iran. Trump has publicly criticized NATO, expressing doubts about its reliability and burden-sharing, stating, 'NATO WASN’T THERE WHEN WE NEEDED THEM.' While the troop relocation plan does not constitute a full withdrawal from NATO, which would require Congressional approval, it indicates a potential shift towards selective engagement with NATO members based on their alignment with US priorities. The discussions reflect ongoing divisions within NATO, especially following a recent ceasefire agreement between the US and Iran.
