that “the one that benefits really the least [from membership in the alliance] is the United States.”
This, of course, is exactly the kind of hostile attitude Macron’s “brain death” comments were referring to. A supporter of the Kurds, Macron was dismayed by Trump’sthis fall to pull out of Syria, abandoning the Syrian Democratic Forces to a Turkish incursion without warning to France or other allies. “We should reassess the reality of what NATO is in the light of the commitment of the United States,” Macron told the, adding that Washington “shows signs of turning its back” on Europe.
Either way, Trump’s little fit has effectively put Macron at arm’s length. Interestingly, it has also confirmed Trump’s support for NATO, telegraphing to world leaders that he’ll speak out to defend America’s role in the alliance—something he’s refused to do for years. Whether or not this was Macron’s plan all along is an open question. But it certainly proves the president can be Jedi-mind-tricked into taking a stance that’s more acceptable to the rest of the world.

This is the strongest nato has been in history? Militarily and financially met by Trumps demand they all reach the 2% GDP levels. If there is a line in the sand drawn and both keep approaching usually the line gets crossed by somebody. Common sense.
