And another source added relations between the two governments have “deteriorated so much following the coup that Washington no longer trusted Ankara to host the weapons”.
The shock claims come after a report by the Stimson Centre warned the stash of nuclear missiles could fall into the hands of terrorists such as Islamic State.
Romania?!! Well, it’s better than a Muslim country, but the only sensible place to store our weapons is in the U.S.A.
