He actually say this at Rally Trump did A is Trump is right or he losiing mentally B I never seen in born day live that former or current US president told Russia go for it Moscow could 'do whatever the hell they want' with NATO members that didn't meet spending targets, warned Trump on Saturday. A NATO leader warned on Sunday that Donland Trump was putting allies at risk after the Republican front-runner said he would "encourage" Russia to attack NATO members that did not meet military spending targets. Speaking at a rally, Trump said that during his presidency he told a leader the US would not protect a NATO member that failed to pay their bills if they were attacked by Moscow. Instead, he "would encourage” Russia “to do whatever the hell they want”. www.euronews.com/2024/02/11/trump-encourages-russia-to-attack-nato-states-not-paying-bills |

NO KIDDING Really Really 'Reckless': Trump's threat to NATO allies sparks fierce backlash in Europe European leaders have decried Donald Trump's suggestion the US would not protect NATO members failing to meet the alliance’s spending target. The former US president and current Republican frontrunner suggested in a South Carolina rally he would "encourage" Russia to attack any NATO country that does not contribute 2% of its GDP to the alliance’s coffers. He claimed the president of an unnamed "big country" in Europe had asked him: "If we don't pay, and we're attacked by Russia, will you protect us?" Trump said his response was: "No I would not protect you. In fact, I would encourage them (Russia) to do whatever the hell they want. You gotta pay. You gotta pay your bills." www.euronews.com/my-europe/2024/02/12/reckless-trumps-threat-to-nato-allies-sparks-fierce-backlash-in-europe |

EU is not amused with Trump Trump’s incendiary NATO remarks send very real shudders through Europe London CNN — Remarks by Donald Trump normally reverberate in an echo chamber of his own creation, a sort of vacuum that often strips them of any consequence globally. It is white noise, one might think – rhetoric designed to project strength and the rejection of the status-quo, rather than an expression of any actual policy. It is just Trump being Trump. But when the former president suggested on Saturday that he would let Russia do “whatever the hell they want” to any NATO member that doesn’t meet spending guidelines, the impact was acute. He recalled what he said was a conversation with a “large” NATO ally – it was unclear who he was referring to or when the conversation took place – which, according to his telling, had declined to spend the 2% recommended equivalent of their GDP on defense, but nevertheless wanted assurances from the US that they would be protected if Russia attacked. Trump said he would not give such an assurance, as the ally was “delinquent,” and Russian President Vladim edition.cnn.com/2024/02/12/europe/trump-nato-putin-europe-analysis-intl/index.html |

I have strange feeling Trump may just want isolate us the USA 'We should not undermine NATO's deterrence credibility', Stoltenberg says in rebuke to Donald Trump "We should not undermine the credibility of NATO's deterrence," Jens Stoltenberg said on Wednesday, issuing a public rebuke to Donald Trump. "Deterrence is in the mind of our adversaries. We should not leave (any) room of miscalculation or misunderstanding in Moscow about our readiness, our commitment and our resolve to protect all allies," the Secretary-General said on Wednesday ahead of a meeting in Brussels of the alliance's defence ministers. "And the reason to do so is not to provoke a conflict but to prevent a conflict as NATO has done successfully for the 65 years." Keeping NATO strong is in "the national interest of the United States," he added, as the country "has never fought a war alone." www.euronews.com/my-europe/2024/02/14/we-should-not-undermine-natos-deterrence-credibility-stoltenberg-says-in-rebuke-to-trump |
