US withdrawal from NATO being 'seriously considered': Trump
US President Donald Trump has said he is "seriously considering" withdrawing the United States from NATO. He made the remarks in an interview with the British daily The Telegraph.
According to the report, Trump described the NATO alliance as a "paper tiger" and questioned its effectiveness. He also said Russian President Vladimir Putin was aware of the matter.
When asked whether he would reconsider US membership in NATO after the ongoing conflict in the Middle East ends, Trump said the matter had "gone beyond reconsideration."
Trump also criticised the capability of the UK's navy, claiming it had weakened and its military strength was no longer what it used to be.
