Trump calls NATO one-sided as the alliance meets in Turkey
The US pays and bleeds for the alliance, he wrote, while 'allies' who 'were not there for us' take its protection for free.
- The 32 members meet July 7-8 in Ankara, a summit more about managing Trump than any threat.
- His anger hardened after Europe refused to help guard Gulf shipping during the US-Israel war on Iran.
- Trump's push to annex Greenland, Danish territory, has deepened allies' unease.
Why it matters: NATO outlived its enemy decades ago; what is left runs on invoices, not principle.
