President Donald Trump ne Saturday ko kaha ki US Germany mein apni troop presence ko kaafi kam kar dega. Ye move Chancellor Friedrich Merz ke saath dispute ko badhata hai, kyunki Trump European security ke liye America ki commitment ko kam karna chahte hain.
Pentagon ne Friday ko pehle elaan kiya tha ki woh Germany se kareeb 5,000 troops hataega. Lekin jab Saturday ko Trump se is move ki wajah puchi gayi, toh unhone koi explanation nahi di aur kaha ki isse bhi badi kami aane wali hai.
Fortune ke mutabiq, Trump ne Florida mein reporters ko bataya, "Hum kaafi kam karne wale hain. Aur hum 5,000 se bhi kaafi aage badh rahe hain."
Pentagon ko nahi thi jaankari — armed services blindsided
Politico ki report ke mutabiq, Trump ke is call ne Pentagon ko shock kar diya. Ek congressional aide ne kaha, "Defense Department ko iski ummeed nahi thi." Ek defense official ne bataya ki armed services is move se bilkul blindsided hui.
Saturday ko hi, Germany ke defense minister Boris Pistorius ne 5,000 US troops ke hataane ki khabar ko "in stride" liya. Unhone is par koi badi chinta nahi dikhayi.
Trump ka target — European security mein kami
Trump ne is baat par koi clear explanation nahi di ki woh Germany se troops kyun hata rahe hain. Lekin unka yeh step European security ke prati America ki commitment ko kam karne ki ek badi koshish maana ja raha hai.
Chancellor Friedrich Merz ke saath dispute pehle se chal rahi thi, aur ab Trump ne ise aur badhate hue troops ki kami ko 5,000 se bhi aage le jaane ka waada kiya hai.
Hamaari Baat: Trump ka move Europe ke liye bada signal
Seedha baat karein toh — Trump ka yeh decision Europe ke liye ek bada warning signal hai. Woh NATO aur European security ko kam important samajhte hain, aur Germany ke saath dispute ko aur badhane se koi ghabrahat nahi hai. Pentagon ka blindsided hona dikhata hai ki is move ki planning bhi sahi se nahi hui. Hamari nazar mein, yeh sirf troop reduction nahi hai — yeh America-Europe relations mein ek naya tension point hai. Germany aur Europe ko ab apni security ke liye aur zyada sochna padega.
