If so, you need to catch up on current events. And by “current”, I mean more than 25 years ago.
And it is precisely because of statements like the one above, that we still need NATO and why the former Soviet bloc countries like Poland and the Baltics are the organization's staunchest supporters.
Those are real countries not one created by Soviet policy as the Ukrainian state was.
As long as NATO benefits America, we will stay in it and run it as we have done for 50 yrs. Trump is pointing out that we will no longer subsidize European welfare systems partially created with diverted defense expenditures.
Serious consideration should be given to transferring certain US military assets to Poland.
