President Donald Trump is considering withdrawing some US troops stationed in Europe, according to a report, raising the prospect of a shift in alliance strategy.

A White House official told Walter Bloomberg on April 9 that Trump is weighing pulling back part of the US military presence in Europe.

The review is part of broader discussions about the US global military footprint and efforts to restructure costs. Trump has repeatedly pressed NATO allies on defense spending.

US forces stationed in Europe are considered a core part of NATO's defense posture. Any troop reduction could affect Europe's security environment.

With the possibility of a shift in US military strategy drawing attention, whether the review leads to an actual policy change and how allies respond remain key variables. Further announcements are in focus.
