Donald Trump warns Nato faces 'very bad future' if allies fail to help US

Donald Trump issued a warning about NATO's future if U.S. allies don't assist in reopening the Strait of Hormuz. In an interview, he emphasized that countries dependent on Gulf oil, like Europe and China, should help ensure the strait's safety.

Trump criticized NATO for not providing support, stating, “I’ve long said that we’ll be there for them but they won’t be there for us.” He called for allies to send minesweepers and military help.

He also mentioned the potential delay of his summit with China's Xi Jinping, urging Beijing to act before then. Trump reiterated that the U.S. is prepared for new strikes on Iran’s oil infrastructure, highlighting his frustration with allies' slow responses.
