UK Prime Minister: President Trump Is ‘100 Percent Behind NATO’

‘I have agreed to continue my efforts to encourage my fellow European leaders to deliver on their commitments to spend a certain percent of their GDP on defense so the burden is more fairly shared’

EXCERPT:

MAY: "On defense and security cooperation, we are united in our recognition of NATO as the bulwark of our collective defense. And today, we've reaffirmed our unshakable commitment to this alliance. Mr. President, I think you said -- you confirmed that you are 100 percent behind NATO. But we're also discussing the importance of NATO continuing to ensure it is as equipped to fight terrorism and cyber warfare as it is to fight more conventional forms of war. And I have agreed to continue my efforts to encourage my fellow European leaders to deliver on their commitments to spend a certain percent of their GDP on defense so the burden is more fairly shared. It's only by investing properly in our defense that can we ensure we are properly equipped to face our shared challenges together.”
