NATO Summit Under Trump’s Shadow | San Antonio News

NATO’s Turkey summit ended with surprising unity as Trump declared “a lot of love” among leaders, despite past friction — even as allies quietly welcomed his leadership. Trump’s sudden Iran strikes, tied to allies failing to protect the Strait of Hormuz, could pave the way for NATO’s unexpected involvement. Meanwhile, Ukraine gets a major boost: U.S. licenses for Patriot systems and a $70 billion NATO defense package, funded by Europe as Washington scales back. Trump also hinted at easing sanctions on Turkey — potentially unlocking F-35s — while European allies pledged $300 billion in new defense spending, crediting Trump’s presence for sparking the surge. The next summit’s location? Still up in the air. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
