The US military has withdrawn troops from a French military base in Chad after the country demanded they leave last month, a Pentagon spokesperson and other sources familiar with the matter told CNN on Wednesday.
More than half of the US troops stationed at the French military base in Chad’s capital, N’Djamena, have now left the country and relocated to Germany.
CNN previously reported that fewer than 100 US troops were stationed in Chad, most of them as part of the US’ Special Operations Task Force, an important hub for US Special Operations Forces in the region.
The Special Operations Task Force was previously based in Germany before moving to Chad in 2021.
“We can confirm the safe and orderly relocation of approximately 60 US forces from Chad to Germany where they will continue their work,” Pentagon spokesperson Maj. Pete Nguyen told CNN on Wednesday. “This temporary step is part of an ongoing review of our security cooperation, which will resume after the May 6 Presidential election.”
The withdrawal was completed on Tuesday, Nguyen said.

I was thinking Chad was that nation ‘declared’ in Seattle. Oops!
I’m confused by the posts on this thread as well. Usually freepers are in favor of the US withdrawal of our troops around the world. Trump is too. From his words I would think he would be withdrawing them also.
