WHAT HAPPENED

Romania is trying to persuade the United States to keep troops stationed there, citing both its needs and its contribution to the alliance. The report does not indicate a binding US decision to withdraw or remain.

SO WHAT?

Any change in US military presence would affect NATO's eastern-flank deterrence and regional security.
