Bulgaria: US Troops to be Send to Bulgaria and Romania pixabay.com

Washington may send troops to Bulgaria and Romania as part of the redistribution of US forces in Europe.

This was reported by the Wall Street Journal, citing sources familiar with the Pentagon's plans.

According to the information, the redistribution of Stryker brigades in Bulgaria and Romania is possible as a result of President Trump's decision to withdraw 12,000 troops from Germany, half of which will be sent elsewhere in Europe, including the Black Sea region. The process would take years and cost at least $6 billion.

The Stryker Brigades are combat teams of thousands of soldiers and hundreds of vehicles, ready to be transferred by transport aircraft and deployed within 96 hours. / bntnews.bg
