NATO Without the United States Is a 'Paper Tiger': Trump

US President Donald Trump has stated that NATO without the United States is a 'paper tiger.' He made this remark on the Truth Social platform, addressing the situation around Iran.

According to Trump, the alliance countries have been unwilling to participate in actions aimed at restraining Iran's nuclear capabilities. He emphasized that from a military standpoint, that struggle is already over, and the threat has now diminished.

At the same time, the President noted that NATO partners are dissatisfied with high oil prices but do not support the opening of the Strait of Hormuz. He believes that this factor is influencing the rise in oil prices.

Trump added that this operation is, in his view, technically easy and poses no significant risks, criticizing the stance of the alliance member countries.
