US President Donald Trump said that he had not made a final decision on withdrawing more US Troops from Europe."I haven't made that final," Trump told reporters when asked about a decision on pulling more US troops out of Europe."A lot's going to depend on Greenland, and a lot make a very good deal on Greenland, and if we don't, maybe I will. And a lot's dependent on Iran. I mean, they want to help now. It's a little late, because essentially there's not that much fighting to be done, but some will depend on Iran," the US president added.Trump has repeatedly criticized Europe for its low investment in NATO's defense and demanded they raise their defense expenditures up to 5% GDP. In April, The Telegraph newspaper reported that the American leader had seriously considered exiting NATO after the alliance refused to help Washington in the Iran conflict.
