The United States is looking at opportunities for either rotational or permanent U.S. presence across the whole European continent, said Department of State Bureau of Political-Military Affairs Assistant Secretary, R. Clarke Cooper, on a conference call on Monday with reporters in response to question whether the United States had identified any alternative to Turkey’s southern Incirlik base, Ahval news reports.

The US is considering the possibility of leaving Turkey’s Incirlik base. It’s likely the American troops will be relocated in one of the Greek islands.
