What are the key security concerns for European officials regarding US military presence in Europe?
European officials view the situation as a major security risk, with approximately 100,000 American troops currently stationed across Europe. The US also maintains an estimated 100 B61 nuclear gravity bombs forward deployed at six NATO bases in five European countries. The implications are stark: potential NATO weakening, an emboldened Russia, and deepening rifts within the European Union over how to respond. These concerns highlight Europe's dependence on US military presence for regional security and the anxiety about any possible troop withdrawals that could alter the strategic balance.
