According to Alliance Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg, Trump never told him in past meetings that the United States would never help Europe if it was attacked.
NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg emphasized that no matter who governs the United States, the country will remain a member of the North Atlantic Alliance and has no plans to leave it. Bloomberg reports this.
“The United States will remain loyal and important allies because it is in the security interests of the United States to have more than 30 friends and allies,” Stoltenberg said.
According to him, this feature does not exist in China and Russia, which, in his opinion, provides the USA with more security and strengthens its power.
The head of the alliance emphasized that Trump never said in previous meetings with him that the United States would refuse to support Europe in case of aggression.
Stoltenberg noted that the US President’s main complaint was about inadequate defense spending by European allies.
“So we have something to say about the distribution of the financial burden,” the Secretary General noted, noting that European allies were now increasing these costs.
Let’s remember that former US President Donald Trump, who is preparing to join the presidential race, said that he would never help Europe if it was attacked. He also added that the EU owes him the money spent on defense.
The US Supreme Court will consider the possible disqualification of former President Donald Trump from participating in the Republican Party’s internal caucus elections.
