Pentagon Chiefs Want More U.S. Troops In Europe

Wall Street Journal: U.S. Military Officials Aim to Bolster Troop Presence in Europe

Pentagon leaders propose rotating more forces to the Continent to deter Russia.

SIMI VALLEY, Calif.—Senior U.S. military leaders have proposed sending more forces into Europe on a rotating basis to build up the American presence and are stepping up training exercises to counter potential Russian interference with troop transfers in the event of a crisis with Moscow.

The new steps would allow for the presence of multiple U.S. brigades in Europe at any given time, increasing that number above current limits.

They were outlined at a forum here over the weekend by military and defense leaders, who condemned military aggression and threats from Russian President Vladimir Putin and warned that the U.S. must not let Moscow’s cooperation with the West in Syria distract from the conflict in Ukraine.
