Trump's stir on Trump's US Army Return Scheme from Eastern Europe

The plan to return thousands of American soldiers from Eastern Europe has raised concern throughout Europe. America's history of deployment of soldiers in Europe is quite old. During the Cold War, the number of American soldiers reached 4 lakhs here. However, this number began to decrease after the Soviet Union's breakdown in 1991. As of 2015, only 62,000 American soldiers were left in Europe.

International News: After the war between Russia and Ukraine started in 2022, the then President Joe Biden sent 20,000 additional soldiers to Europe. Due to this, the total number of American soldiers in Europe reached 1 lakh. This was deployed to increase the strength of NATO and respond to Russia. According to reports, Donald Trump plans to withdraw around 10,000 American soldiers from Europe. This number is half of the additional deployment that was sent after the Russia-Ukraine war. Experts say that this decision may affect NATO's military power and quick action ability during crisis.

European leaders' concern increased

This plan of Trump has a wave of concern among many leaders of Europe. He fears that this may increase both the strength and courage of Russia President Vladimir Putin. European countries also feared that America's trust in European security is weakening.

Russia will benefit

Experts believe that the return of the US Army will give Russia a chance to strengthen its hold in Eastern Europe. Apart from this, Europe's security system can be weak and in case of any crisis, it can be difficult to bring soldiers there.

Question on transatlantic relationships

After this strategy of Trump, the question has arisen how much priority America will give to Europe's security in the future. This can also change the direction of decades -old defense relations between the US and European countries.
