US to remain in NATO, Rubio says, but higher defense spending needed

ai generated text

Marco Rubio, a high-ranking US official, has visited NATO headquarters to address concerns among European counterparts regarding the Trump administration's stance on the military alliance. Rubio has characterized some of the media's portrayal of NATO as "hysteria and hyperbole", suggesting that the alliance is not inherently flawed. However, he emphasizes the need for NATO to have the capabilities to fulfill its obligations, implying that the current state of the alliance may not meet this requirement. It is worth noting that Trump has previously expressed skepticism about NATO, questioning the US's commitment to defending its treaty allies. Rubio's visit comes at a time of heightened tension between the US and Europe, particularly regarding the war in Ukraine, Russia relations, and trade policies.
