Germany 'prepared' for any US troop reduction: minister

Germany's foreign minister said Thursday the country was "prepared" for any reduction of U.S. troop numbers in Germany, after U.S. President Donald Trump threatened such a move in a row with Chancellor Friedrich Merz.

"We are prepared for that," Johann Wadephul said during a visit to Morocco. "We are discussing it closely and in a spirit of trust in all NATO bodies, and we are expecting decisions from the Americans about this."
