TSX drops after Canadian index edges higher in prior session
Investing.com -- The United States military clarified on Wednesday that its decision not to replace departing American troops in Romania does not represent a withdrawal from Europe or diminished NATO commitment.
"The 2nd Infantry Brigade Combat Team of the 101st Airborne Division will re-deploy as scheduled to their Kentucky-based home unit without replacement," U.S. Army Europe said in a statement.
The military emphasized that this move should not be interpreted as a reduction in U.S. support for its European allies. "This is not an American withdrawal from Europe or a signal of lessened commitment to NATO and Article 5," the statement continued.
U.S. Army Europe further assured that "this force posture adjustment will not change the security environment in Europe," indicating that the strategic military balance in the region would remain stable despite the troop movement.
