Reply to comment by Melodic2000 in Romanian President: we need more force on the Eastern Flank by Melodic2000
The US also has bases in Kosovo and just moved a portion of SOCEUR to Albania. Also has naval assets in Greece and a massive airbase in Turkey.
We first need to see if the Romanian population will be fine with us building a massive footprint in their country. Having little America's pop up in Romania like we have in Germany might upset the locals, lol.

Kosovo is not in NATO.

Are you kidding me?! We waited for American troops to come since WW2

Kosovo has a NATO force and American troops at Bondsteel. We can move troops in, out, and around the Balkans from Kosovo.

Your fight is not going to be with us because we do not care where the troops are stationed. You have to fight the Germans because they will object to moving any of the 30,000 troops or equipment out of Germany into Romania permanently.

We don't want to fight you. Unfortunately you chose to fight us while forgetting your greatest enemy in Asia. 🤷 That if you're Russian.
We don't have to fight Germany at all. We don't need those troops. We ask for their troops here. 😉

That is a sobering link. I'm ashamed that I've never even heard of this until now.
Melodic2000 OP t1_iybqqv3 wrote
Not many people in the Western world heard about it anyway. 🤷🙂

Yeah, I am going to go ahead and admit defeat on this one. I served for 10 years in the US and I had never heard of this or had any idea about Romania's back story since WW2.

Hahahah not a lot of you know about us anyway. It's not like we are an important country anyway.

Anywhere making tuica, mici, and ciorba should certainly not be overlooked.
