President Donald Trump plans to pull about 20,000 U.S. troops from Europe, according to a leading Italian news agency.

A European diplomatic source told ANSA that Trump, who entered office on Monday for a second term, wants to reduce the American contingent in Europe by about 20 percent and plans to ask for a “financial contribution” for the maintenance of the remaining troops.

    Given his threats towards Greenland i’d be happy to not have a hundred thousand US troops all over Europe to wreak havoc, if Trump decides to invade.

    Also Europe has been a staging area for US invasions, wars and drone muders long enough.
