    German AF, has been training at Holloman AFB since the 1950s, the RAF also uses that area too. Lots of countries like to train in less rainy weather the SW US provides those opportunities.

      They train there, they don’t have their own military bases there. That’s the first point. The second point being that even if they had military bases on US soil, it would be because the US invited them to.

        They don’t build their own bases in the US because the US has the infrastructure. The US got permission from Syria for those bases.

          The government of Syria deems the U.S. military presence in al-Tanf illegal and “considers the presence of Turkish and U.S. troops on its territory as an aggression and demands immediate and unconditional withdrawal of foreign forces from its territory.”

          So which is it then. Can’t have your cake and eat it too

            Syria is not united, the New Syrian Army, which controls the area has allowed the US presence.
