The USA has no plans to withdraw its troops from Europe, said Mark Rutte before the meeting of NATO foreign ministers in Brussels today. The NATO Secretary General also responded evasively to the question of whether there was anything to the media reports that the USA could relinquish the post of Supreme Allied Commander in Europe (Saceur). He would not comment on rumors and hypothetical questions. It was clear that the Europeans would have to take greater care of their security in the future, as the USA wanted to concentrate on Asia. However, the Trump administration has also repeatedly committed itself to the alliance.
