NATO Secretary General Stoltenberg Stands Up for the Alliance
NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg refused to wade into US domestic
politics, but he delivered a forceful defense of the Alliance on April 6
in remarks that may be interpreted as a firm rebuttal to Republican
presidential frontrunner Donald Trump’s criticism of the grouping as “obsolete.”
Noting that the mutual interests of the United States and Europe are best served by a strong North Atlantic alliance, Stoltenberg said: “Without NATO, transatlantic cooperation would be weaker, Europe and North America less safe, and the world a more dangerous place.”
