Donald Trump again questions US commitment to Nato ahead of summit in Netherlands

President Donald Trump on Wednesday once again raised questions about America's commitment to defend its allies should they come under attack as he prepared to join a NATO summit in the Netherlands.

Just as he did during his first term in office, Trump suggested that his backing would depend on whether US allies are spending enough on defence. He's demanded that European allies and Canada dedicate 5 per cent of GDP to their security.

On the eve of the meeting in The Hague, Trump told reporters aboard Air Force One that his commitment to Article 5 of NATO's founding treaty — the organisation's collective security guarantee — “depends on your definition”. “There's numerous definitions of Article 5. You know that, right?” Trump said. “But I'm committed to being their friends.” He signalled that he would give a more precise definition of what Article 5 means to him once he is at the summit.
