U.S. President Donald Trump escalates threats to withdraw the United States from NATO after European allies refuse to support U.S. military efforts related to the Iran conflict and reopening the Strait of Hormuz. Trump argues that the U.S. receives insufficient support from the alliance. Meanwhile, UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer plans a meeting of about 35 countries to address the Strait crisis and global energy routes. Legal experts note that although NATO allows withdrawal with one year’s notice, the U.S. president may require Congressional approval, making the issue both legal and geopolitical.
