Obama to close bases in Europe

US media report that Pentagon is planning to close 15 bases in Europe. In light of what Russia is doing on its borders it is hardly a wise step.

While Pentagon claims that it is reorganization and consolidation, some troops will be sent to bases in England, thousands of US troops will come back home. There is also talk of moving 2 squadrons of F-35s to the UK.

This latest move will save America about $500 million a year.

Merry Orthodox Christmas president Putin.
