President Trump stated that most NATO allies have declined to support the U.S.
military operation against Iran, despite widespread international agreement on
the necessity of preventing Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons. Trump
criticized NATO as a "one-way street," where the U.S. spends billions protecting
other countries, but they offer no assistance in return. He also claimed that
with U.S. military successes, including the destruction of Iran’s military
forces, the U.S. no longer needs help from NATO, Japan, Australia, or South
Korea.
