"Trump's announcement of a possible troop reduction in Germany comes after criticism from German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, who stated that the US is being humiliated by Iran. Merz emphasized that the Iranians are skilled at negotiating, or rather, at avoiding negotiations, which has left the US without results in their diplomatic efforts."
"The potential withdrawal of US troops is likely to cause concern in Berlin and across Europe, especially as tensions rise between the US and its traditional allies. Trump's threats to withdraw from NATO due to European allies' failure to support the US-Israeli war on Iran further complicate the situation."
