The recent US elections may lead to an increase in American military presence in Romania, according to Rear Admiral Constantin Ciorobea. He suggests potential locations for a new base, including Câmpia Turzii and Sibiu. The elections could also prevent abrupt troop withdrawals seen during the Trump administration, allowing for a more planned reduction in Europe. Ciorobea emphasizes the importance of Mihail Kogălniceanu Air Base for US operations, especially as some bases in the Middle East have diminished. The establishment of a new base would enhance Romania's defense capabilities.
