US President Trump Orders Closure of Alexandroupoli Base

According to the Greek newspaper Dimokratia, US President Donald Trump has issued the order to close the Alexandroupoli Base in Greece following requests from Russian President Vladimir Putin and Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.

The move is seen as a strategic loss for Greece, as Turkey has long been opposed to the US military presence in Alexandroupoli.

The base in Alexandroupoli was established during the Biden administration to provide ammunition and support to Ukraine in the conflict between Russia and Ukraine.
