US President Donald Trump announced he is seriously considering withdrawing the United States from the NATO alliance due to insufficient military support from member states in the ongoing war against Iran. In an interview with the British newspaper The Telegraph, Trump dismissed the defense coalition as “paper tigers” and stated that a potential US exit is now “beyond reconsideration.” The President took specific aim at British Prime Minister Keir Starmer and the UK Royal Navy, mocking their maritime capabilities and claiming they rely on “useless aircraft carriers.” Highlighting the growing transatlantic divide, Trump compared the situation to the conflict in Ukraine, arguing that while the US automatically stepped up to defend Europe, its allies have entirely failed to return the favor in the Middle East.
