DONALD Trump was “wrong” to diminish the role of Nato and British troops in Afghanistan, Downing Street has said after the US President claimed allies stayed away from the front line in the conflict.

Trump's troops slur 'wrong', says No10

US President Donald Trump

The Prime Minister's official spokesman condemned Mr Trump's remarks, saying UK forces had served alongside the US and Nato in “sustained combat operations”.

Pointing to the 457 British deaths in Afghanistan and the “many hundreds” more who were wounded, he added: “We are incredibly proud of our armed forces and their service and sacrifice will never be forgotten.”

Mr Trump made his comments in an interview with Fox News in which he reiterated his suggestion that Nato would not support America if asked.
