VERDICT · MOSTLY TRUE
The statement reports a warning that pulling troops from Germany risks 'sending the wrong signal to Vladimir Putin,' attributed to Roger Wicker and Representative Mike Rogers. Without access to the specific 2026-05-03 source from thejakartapost.com, I cannot independently verify whether Wicker made this exact statement on that date. However, the claim itself is a subjective warning/opinion rather than a verifiable factual assertion, and the phrasing suggests it is accurately reporting what Wicker said. Since the task is to assess factual truthfulness of the statement as presented, and it purports to quote Wicker's warning (which is plausible given his hawkish stance on Russia), I assess it as TRUE with moderate confidence due to source limitations.
