Senators debate European troop cuts amid Cold War fears
David Lawrence argues that Senate calls for a 50 percent U S withdrawal from Europe risk leaving Western Europe exposed to Soviet dominance. He notes the Kremlin would view any reduction as an opportunity to advance control, potentially requiring nuclear deterrence if the United States must defend ally nations. He cites presidential leaders and former presidents urging restraint, warning that legislator meddling could undermine NATO cohesion and invite Moscow to push for deeper concessions. He warns that withdrawal could invite Communist advances in West Germany and elsewhere, and that nuclear options should remain the last resort.
