The renowned German newspaper, “wild”, Report that, according to its information, Italy is preparing for the possible withdrawal of American troops from Kosovo.
“According to Bild's data, Italy is preparing for possible withdrawal of US troops from Kosovo. European allies would then be alone in the Balkans against Putin's friend, Aleksandar Vuciq, and his powerful Serbian army” The German newspaper article says.
There is great concern in many parts of Europe for the American-Russian negotiations. American President Donald Trump has ruled out a complete withdrawal of American troops from Europe. According to Bild's data, Western security services and Western politicians fear that the talks that began today in Riyadh could lead to the conclusion of the American troops' presence in large parts of Europe” ) says at the outset.
A security official in Eastern Europe newspaper “Bild” told him: “According to our data, this is about Putin's 2021 demands, which are the withdrawal of American troops from all NATO states that have become part of the alliance after 1990. ”
The worst case scenario is that in which many experts fear an immediate invasion by the Russian Army in the former Soviet republics of Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania, as well as a high-scale fight with Poland, the German newspaper's article further says.
The presence of American troops in areas near Russia, according to the consensus of Russia's neighbouring states, is the greatest guarantee of independence for these countries.
Lithuania's former Foreign Minister, Gabrielius Landsbergis, wrote on the X network: “Lavrov asked that NATO return to its borders in 1997 and withdraw from all states except Germany [former] East to the interest of stability in Europe. So why shouldn't Putin ask for this in Riyadh?”
In a newspaper analysis “Financial Times” It says: “Putin wants NATO troops withdrawn from all former Soviet empires. European officials believe Trump will likely agree to withdraw American troops from Baltic and possibly even further west. That would leave the EU without protection against the Russian military. ”
According to data from the newspaper “Bild”, the only bases currently out of question are American bases in Ramstein, Germany, and the air force bases in Britain. The rest of Europe must prepare for profound changes if Trump and Putin reach an agreement, the article says.
