China & WorldU.S. to Withdraw 5,000 Troops From Germany Over Next 6 to 12 Months
The Pentagon announced it will withdraw around 5,000 U.S. troops from Germany within 6 to 12 months, as relations between Washington and Berlin deteriorate over the Iran conflict.
The US Department of Defense announced on May 1st that it will withdraw approximately 5,000 soldiers from Germany within the next six to twelve months. Pentagon spokesperson Sean Parnell stated that this adjustment is a result of a comprehensive review of European military deployment. Germany currently hosts over 35,000 US military personnel, and after the withdrawal, approximately 30,000 troops will still remain. This withdrawal decision is closely related to diplomatic tensions between Washington and Berlin. German Chancellor Friedrich Merz previously publicly criticized the US for lacking a clear strategy in the Iran war. Trump subsequently stated that the scale of troop withdrawal may far exceed 5,000 people and hinted that Spain and Italy could also be affected. This move has triggered widespread concern among European allies that the United States will gradually reduce its security commitment to Europe.
