NPR · United States · Trump tells NATO chief he was "let down" over Iran war as alliance fractures over burden-sharing
Reports Trump telling Rutte he was 'let down' by allies who sat out the Iran war, and threatening that the $87.6bn supplemental request to Congress should factor in Europe's failure to contribute combat troops; frames the meeting as a preview of NATO's July summit where burden-sharing will dominate.
“Trump said the United States would have liked more allied participation in the Iran war, and he was let down by NATO.”
