US President Donald Trump announced that his country will withdraw 5,000 active-duty troops from NATO ally Germany in the next six to 12 months, fulfilling his earlier threats after Trump clashes with German Chancellor Friedrich Merz over the US-Israeli war in Iran.
Trump had threatened to withdraw some troops from the NATO ally earlier this week after Chancellor Friedrich Merz said Washington was being “humiliated” by the Iranian leadership and criticised their lack of strategy in the war.
