Answer:

The correct answer is B. During President Obama's first term in office, he continued the withdrawal of troops from Iraq.

Step-by-step explanation:

During his first term in office, Obama announced that he would keep Secretary of Defense Robert Gates in his cabinet, who was assigned to that position by George W. Bush. He promoted a change in the US war strategy by increasing the number of troops in Afghanistan and reducing the number of troops in Iraq. Similarly, on February 27, 2009, he announced that the combat missions in Iraq will conclude on August 31, 2010 and that the total withdrawal of US troops will be made in that country in 2011.
