Trump visits troops in Germany after surprise Iraq stop


President Trump made his second unannounced visit to U.S. troops abroad on Wednesday, according to reports. On his way back from meeting troops in Iraq, Trump stopped at Ramstein Air Force Base in Germany for refueling and met with service members there. Trump met with U.S. diplomats and senior military leaders and wished troops a happy holiday. The White House said security concerns and the short notice of the trip prevented Trump from meeting with Adel Abdul-Mahdi. The head of a powerful Iraqi militia that enjoys backing from Iran is threatening to expel U.S. forces from Iraq after the unannounced visit.
