NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg is convinced that Donald Trump, if he wins the US presidential election, will not withdraw the country from the Alliance, as the United States needs allies. He said this at the Davos Forum, Bloomberg reports.
"The United States will remain a loyal and important ally, because it is in the security interests of the United States to have more than 30 friends and allies," Stoltenberg said.
According to him, this is what distinguishes the United States from Russia and China, and what makes the United States safer and stronger.
In addition, the NATO Secretary General added, in the past, Trump "has not expressed any claims against the Alliance."
Stoltenberg noted that the former US president was only dissatisfied with the amount of money allocated by the allies for defense.
The secretary general noted that European allies are now increasing these expenditures, "so we have something to say about sharing the financial burden," he concluded.
