Romanian President Nicușor Dan has said the country is ready to help fund the US troops stationed on its territory and expects the American military presence to expand. Bucharest has already submitted a cost-sharing plan to Washington. The initiative comes amid statements by the Trump administration about a possible reduction of the US presence in Europe. There are currently 1,172 US service members in Romania, down from about 1,700 previously.
