Theresa May: I wasnāt sure if Trump would stay in NATO
BUCKINGHAMSHIRE, England ā The "unpredictable" former U.S. President Donald Trump would keep even the closest American ally, Britain, guessing over what he planned to do in terms of NATO, former U.K. Prime Minister Theresa May said on Friday.
Speaking to a group of Conservative Party supporters in Milton Keynes, May recalled her first meeting with Trump in 2017, in which NATO was already high on her agenda ā in a manner similar to how Trump is again brandishing a threat to withdraw from the defense alliance in his ongoing election campaign.
"I was the first world leader to go and see him after his inauguration," May said. "And I went with the express aim of getting him to commit to NATO, because of things he'd said in his presidential campaign," she added.
