The US may be about to leave NATO, leaving it a weakened ‘paper tiger’.
The geopolitical conflicts of the last few months shed light on the rising tensions between the United States and the countries of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO).
Addressing the present situation inside the security alliance, US President Donald J. Trump said back on Monday (6) that his recent outrage with NATO began with the controversy over Greenland.

“’It all began with, if you want to know the truth, Greenland’, Trump said during a White House press conference. ‘We want Greenland. They don’t want to give it to us. And I said, ‘bye, bye.’
The remark revives a dispute that rattled transatlantic ties in January, when Trump threatened to take control of the self-ruling Danish territory before backing down after an agreement was struck. The episode sparked alarm across Europe, with Denmark reportedly preparing contingency plans in case of a U.S. invasion of the island.”

Trump also accused his ‘allies’ of failing to support Washington during the Iran war.
“’I think it’s a mark on NATO that will never disappear’, he said, adding he was ‘very disappointed’ by the lack of military backing after several countries — including Spain — refused to grant access to bases or airspace, and European governments declined to send warships to secure the Strait of Hormuz.”

Trump mentioned the idea of pulling out of NATO last week, while Secretary of State Marco Rubio also said that the alliance is becoming ‘not a very good arrangement’ for Washington.

If NATO is just about us defending Europe if they’re attacked, but them denying us basing rights when we need them, that’s not a very good arrangement. pic.twitter.com/LFtx1HeMF8
