Evaluating Future U.S. Army Force Posture in Europe: Phase I Report

By Heather A. Conley and Kathleen H. Hicks

This report offers a reexamination of U.S. Army posture in Europe amid heightened tensions between the United States and Russia over the geopolitical orientation of Ukraine. This study reviews Russian military capabilities; considers alternative U.S. force posture arrangements; assesses how to determine whether assurance and deterrence goals are being met; and offers concrete recommendations in order to optimize the U.S. Army's presence in Europe to deter Russian aggression against the most vulnerable NATO members.
