The Washington Post obtained a memorandum from U.S. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth.

The memorandum outlines the long-term goals for the global redeployment of American troops. The primary goal is to reduce the number of troops stationed in Europe, thereby allowing the EU to take on the mission of confronting Russia alone.

The plan calls for reducing the number of troops stationed in the Middle East and Africa, enabling these countries to solve their own problems.

China is considered the top military threat. The troops withdrawn will be redeployed to strengthen the defensive capabilities in the Pacific region to address this issue.
