Marco Rubio meets NATO foreign ministers in Sweden to discuss Trump administration concerns about allied involvement in Middle East operations and European troop deployments
Secretary of State Marco Rubio met with NATO foreign ministers in Helsingborg, Sweden, on Friday to address Trump's disappointment with allied reluctance to join US military operations in the Middle East, particularly regarding Iran and the Strait of Hormuz. Rubio denied that recent US troop movements in Europe are punitive while emphasizing the need for clearer allied commitments. The discussion set the stage for what Rubio described as a potentially pivotal NATO summit in July in Ankara.
