A concurrent resolution expressing the sense of the Congress that the member nations of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization should reassess armed forces deployments in Europe with a view toward withdrawing some units of the United States Armed Forces as a strategic reserve available to respond worldwide to threats against the security of the United States.

Summary

Expresses the sense of the Congress that: (1) North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) member countries should make a reassessment of the Atlantic Alliance, including a strategic study of whether current armed forces deployments by NATO still fit strategic reality; (2) Western European countries should assume greater responsibility for their own conventional defense; and (3) those U.S. armed forces based in Western Europe which are not earmarked for Western European defense should be withdrawn to the United States for use as a strategic reserve.
