Donald Trump Changes His Tune on NATO
President Donald Trump has expressed his support for the collective defense offered by NATO in a reversal of his previous criticism of the alliance.
Trump was asked by the BBC whether he still thought the alliance was "obsolete" as he had previously said, but he replied: "NATO is now becoming the opposite of that." He added that the alliance was now "paying their own bills."
The U.S. president had called on NATO's European members to increase their defense spending and pay a larger share of the alliance's budget.
Trump's latest comments come after he attended a NATO summit in The Hague last month, where he signaled a greater commitment to the bloc.
