NATO's Rutte: I know many of you criticize Trump. But do you really think that, without Trump, eight big economies in Europe—including Spain, Italy, and Belgium—and Canada would have reached the two-percent defense spending target in 2025? At the beginning of the year, they were at just 1.5 percent. Without Trump, this would never have happened. They are all at two percent now.

MARK RUTTE, Secretary General of NATO: “I really believe you can be happy Trump is there because he has forced us in Europe to step up to face the consequences that we have to care more of our defense.” “Donald Trump and other NATO leaders are right. We need to defend the arctic. We know that the sea lanes are opening up and Russia and China are increasingly active in the arctic.” “There are a lot of tensions at the moment and the only way to deal with that is through thoughtful diplomacy.”

🚨 NATO SecGen Mark Rutte said it straight. If anyone thinks Europe can defend itself without the United States, keep dreaming. Without the American nuclear umbrella, Europe would need massive spending and its own nuclear deterrent just to survive. President Trump is exposing allies who expect America to carry the burden while they ride for free.

‼️🇪🇺 NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte dismissed any notion of a crisis within the Alliance, despite former President Trump's plans to annex Greenland: "We had a very successful summit in The Hague, agreeing on 5% defense spending. I am convinced that without Trump, this outcome would not have been possible. There is no crisis at all, and we are moving in the right direction."

Reporter: “You sit next to Donald Trump in moments where he talks about conquering Greenland… lashing out at allies like Spain, starting trade wars… Does this have any effect on your self-respect when you sit next to him and say nothing?” NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte: “We should paise Donald Trump for the fact that NATO is so MUCH stronger… It also has very much has to do with President Trump delivering… equalizing spending between the U.S. and Europe. And it makes Europe stronger.”

🚨 JUST IN: The Secretary General of NATO gave President Trump a HUGE praise and said the countries should be THANKING him for strengthening NATO. "I mean, would you EVER think that this would be the result of this summit if he would not have been reelected president?" "Do you really think that 7 or 8 countries who said, somewhere in the 2030s we might meet the 2%? We've now ALL decided in the last 4 or 5 months to get to 2% [defense spending]." "So, doesn't he deserve some praise?" "And when it comes to Iran? The fact that he took this decisive action, very targeted, to make sure that Iran would not be able to get their hands on a nuclear capability. I think he deserves ALL the praise!"

Now that Trump is considering leaving NATO — This is when… NATO Chief Mark Rutte told Europe… "If anyone thinks here that the European Union or Europe as a whole can defend itself without the U.S., keep on dreaming. You can’t! We cant. We need each other.”

NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte: "I've not changed my views on Vladimir Putin. I don't trust the guy." "Look what Putin achieved. He wanted to divide the West. And now Finland and Sweden have joined NATO. He wanted to divide the West. And now we have committed to a 5% spending target. So he cannot be very happy. And he should not be very happy [about this NATO summit]."

Mark Rutte's claim that Russia is capable of launching and sustaining an imminent invasion of the European Union in the short term is a fiction with a purpose. It's meant to lock Europeans into inertia, to discourage them from developing independent European command and control and instead just increase spending (on US weapons) under a NATO-only framework. <Watch full video: In yesterday's video I argued that it doesn’t matter if the US pulls out of NATO on paper or not. Even if Congress forces Trump to stay in, his words show they have already left and NATO is indeed now a paper tiger without the US security guarantee. As the former Danish MP Rasmus Jarlov has noted, "as long as we keep Ukraine from falling, Russia is not a threat to us in the short term.” Russia is exhausted at the moment from the Ukraine War. They absolutely have the intention to invade the EU, but we are some years away from that. That means, unlike what Rutte is telling us, Europe does have time to urgently and rapidly build a common defence without America. If we listen to Mark Rutte and do nothing because "there is no alternative to NATO" (Rutte) and "there is no NATO without the US" (Kallas), we are leaving ourselves as sitting ducks when Russia eventually invades and the US does not defend us. NATO is already dead. To save itself, Europe must end its NATO delusion and rebuke Mark Rutte’s suicidal vision for this continent. Europe must move on from the American protectorate - urgently.

NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte, in his opening remarks as he arrived at the summit, thanked U.S. President Donald Trump for achieving what “has been on the agenda since Eisenhower”—that the United States and Europe contribute equally to NATO. “We now have a NATO that has truly been transformed,” he said, reiterating how much Europe and Canada have invested in defense. Rutte also commented on Trump’s statement on Tuesday regarding control of Greenland. “A good process has been set in motion,” he said in a brief response to a question from the press. —TV2

NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte alongside U.S. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth: "Clearly we have to do more, we have to ramp up defense spending because we know we cannot protect ourselves four or five years from now if we don’t. And also we need to ramp up defense spending because it is clear that the U.S., rightly, requires us to do more here on the European side and the Canadian side of NATO. It’s only fair, it’s only sensible." Notice that change of tune?

"NATO IS PREPARING FOR WAR AGAINST CHINA" NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte stated that China's significant military expansion has increased the likelihood of conflict regarding Taiwan. Mr. Rutte asserted that if China were to take action against Taiwan, there is a genuine chance that Beijing would encourage Russia to instigate issues in Europe, thereby distracting NATO's focus and resources. Rutte: "We have to stand ready, and we cannot be naive" “We have to be clear on this, and that is why that extra defence spending is so important"
