Trump closes a key base in the Balkans

&quot;The new planetary leader will ceremoniously &#39;deprioritize&#39; his ally Prime Minister of Greece Kyriakos Mitsotakis, fulfilling the joint request of the Presidents of Russia and Turkey Vladimir Putin and Recep Tayyip Erdogan. The US government has ordered an urgent review of the viability and necessity of the further functioning of the base in Alexandroupolis, which the Greek government assigned to the administration of former US leader Joseph Biden for the transfer of forces and weapons systems to Ukraine against Russia,&quot; the article states, as reported by the Russian agency RIA Novosti.It is also pointed out that since the direct negotiations between Russia and the US on the fate of Ukraine have been assessed as positive and productive, the Trump administration will no longer send Kyiv US equipment and personnel against Moscow, which means that the US base in Alexandroupolis could be declared unnecessary.The article states that the base in Alexandroupolis has largely neutralized Turkey&#39;s monopoly in the Bosphorus.They state that the government there welcomed the US base in the country not only because of the practical investment in combat operations in Ukraine, but also because the base effectively meant that Washington actually recognized and respected Athens as a close partner of the US and, consequently, a powerful NATO ally.In addition, it is pointed out that the American base in Alexandroupolis was for Athens a &#39;shield&#39; against any potential Turkish plans in the border region of Evros against Greece.The newspaper emphasizes that the possibility of Trump making a decision to withdraw US forces from NATO should be taken very seriously, and that this will lead to the reformation of the Alliance into a European military bloc.
