Trump: "NATO has done absolutely nothing ... we don't need them"



SECRETARY RUBIO: The U.S. is constantly asked to help in wars and we have. But when we had a need, it didn’t get positive responses from NATO. A couple leaders said that Iran was not Europe’s war. Well, Ukraine isn’t our war, yet we’ve contributed more to that fight than anyone.

Trump: I've heard that today Blinken made a statement that he should have done it. Thanks a lot, I appreciate it. Blinken is Biden’s guy I guess. Who the hell knows who he is. But he came out with the statement that they should have done it, they made a mistake

Trump is "stealing" $750 million from NATO countries. This $750 million maneuver is further evidence of transatlantic friction under Trump: Europe pays, the US decides flexibly according to its own priorities. It's annoying, partly unfair to the contributing countries, and undermines credibility. But it's not an "expropriation" of already delivered weapons, but rather a shift in distribution priorities. Europe should learn from this: The right response is to build strategic autonomy for Europe. And one more thing—Trump is anything but a reliable partner.
