The EU said on Thursday (April 30, 2026) that the deployment of U.S. troops in Europe was in Washington’s interest, after President Donald Trump threatened to cut force numbers in Germany.

European Union spokeswoman Anitta Hipper said the United States was “a vital partner in contributing to Europe’s security and defence”.
