European leaders have been fighting how to handle ice relations with the US Ever President Donald Trump This year’s control over the White House resumed.

The current number of US troops in Europe ranged from 75,000 to 105,000 from 2022, according to the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS), and the higher end of this number is the result of overloading forces ordered by Biden.

These fears were caused by the latest events, including Vice -President JD Vance’s The comments at the Security Conference in Munich, at which the American leader of the European leaders for his alleged break from common values, such as freedom of speech and expanding Trump’s break with Ukrainian President Floodim Zelensky.

Really US military personnel The shooting in Europe has fallen sharply since the end of the Cold War, CSIS data shows. Almost 500,000 troops on the continent were located in the midst of hostilities between the US and the Soviet Union in the 1950s and 1960s. At the beginning of the 1990s, there were approximately 350,000 US troops in Europe and over 100,000 fell at the end of the Cold War.
Despite consistent warnings, European leaders are now afraid that the timing of troops from the continent can accelerate further, leaving holes in the European security countries that they cannot fill.
