WASHINGTON (Reuters) – NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte said after talks with U.S. President Donald Trump on Thursday that the United States and its European allies agree that Russia is a long-term threat.
“We all agree in NATO that Russia is the long-term threat to NATO territory — to the whole of the Euro-Atlantic territory,” Rutte told reporters outside the White House. He also said the United States remained committed to NATO, even as Washington increasingly focuses on the Asia-Pacific region.
