#Trump is withdrawing 5k troops from #Germany
The #US is withdrawing 5k troops from Germany, the #Pentagon announced Friday, in a rebuke to the close #NATO ally amid a widening rift between Trump & #Europe over the #Iran #war.
Trump had threatened a drawdown in forces earlier this week after sparring with German Chancellor Friedrich #Merz, who said the Iranians were humiliating the US in talks to end the 2-month-old war.

To remove or not to remove, that is the big question, Trump and Putin want it now, that's gotta tell ya something
Trump, after a 90 min call with #Putin, is considering withdrawing all troops from #Germany. Something sinister is going on between them. It’s time for “concerned” Republicans to speak out"
