Trump disrupts NATO summit with threats to allies and troop withdrawal

During a NATO summit in Turkey, former President Trump disrupted proceedings by threatening trade sanctions against Spain for refusing to allow U.S. strikes on Iran and reiterating his demand for Greenland. He also suggested a complete withdrawal of U.S. troops from Europe and expressed admiration for China's Xi Jinping, while simultaneously criticizing allies who did not support the U.S. during the Iran conflict. Despite these disruptions, NATO members reaffirmed their commitment to collective defense and pledged support for Ukraine, with Trump agreeing to license Patriot air-defense interceptor manufacturing for Kyiv.
