NATO's top commander Alexus Grynkewich said on Tuesday that a U.S. decision to withdraw an armoured brigade, or a total of 5,000 troops, from Europe will not undermine the alliance's defence plans in the region.
Grynkewich, speaking in Brussels where he met with military chiefs from NATO countries, added that European allies and Canada are taking more responsibility for the conventional defence in Europe with continued backing from the U.S. capabilities, which are being adjusted.
