The United States has announced it will withdraw troops from the eastern flank of NATO, but there are currently no indications that its presence in Bulgaria will be reduced. However, significant changes are expected in Romania, where the American presence is much larger; it will be halved, leaving 1000 personnel. There are about 250 American soldiers in Bulgaria, and sources at Mediapool do not expect this number to decrease. Half of the American troops are being withdrawn from Romania. Last October, the US announced a reduction in its troop presence in Romania, specifically that a battalion from the U.S. rotational brigade assigned to the southeastern flank of NATO will no longer be sent to the Mihail Kogălnica base.
