According to the Greek press, US President Donald Trump is rumored to have decided to shut down the American base in Alexandroupoli, Greece. The Dimokratia newspaper reported on the front page that the US government has initiated an urgent review to determine whether the activities at the base in Alexandroupoli will continue. Following the end of the conflict in Ukraine, it is suggested in the news that this base may no longer be necessary and could be closed. It was stated that the closure of the base would strengthen Turkey’s influence over the Straits and increase Ankara’s control over the region. The news highlighted that if this decision is made, both the Greek government and the opposition will be in a difficult position, and it emphasized the need to reassess whether the base is necessary for Greece’s national interests. Furthermore, it was noted that a potential US withdrawal from NATO could also impact Greece’s strategic planning. The Ta Nea newspaper’s report also suggested that countries like Greece would be negatively affected if the base in Alexandroupoli is closed due to the reduction of US support for Ukraine. The news highlighted the Trump administration’s emphasis on “America first.”
