Episode Details

NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte meets with President Trump to address tensions over Iran conflict, as Trump criticizes NATO for not supporting his push to reopen the Strait of Hormuz. A two-week ceasefire between the U.S. and Iran has been agreed upon, but Trumps threats to bomb Irans infrastructure still loom. Trumps longstanding complaints about NATO not backing the U.S. have led to threats of withdrawal, despite a law blocking such action. Senator Mitch McConnell urges Trump to maintain partnerships with NATO allies, who have fought alongside Americans in Afghanistan and Iraq. The meetings outcome is uncertain, as Trump is known to change his mind, and the ceasefires fragility adds to the pressure.
