US Secretary of State Marco Rubio stated that the US and Israel did not receive the expected support from NATO allies in the war that began with attacks on Iran, and that they would have to re-evaluate the Alliance after the conflicts.
“Elchi” reports that in an interview with Fox News, Rubio commented on the war that began with the attacks by the US and Israel on Iran.
Criticizing NATO allies who did not send support to the Strait of Hormuz or allow the use of bases despite the US’s request, Rubio said: “We are not asking them to conduct airstrikes. When we need to use their military bases, the answer is ‘No’. So why are we in NATO?”
Rubio claimed that he had “strongly defended” NATO since his time as a senator, but that this Alliance was “increasingly becoming a one-sided relationship.” Stating that the final decision regarding NATO belonged to US President Donald Trump, Rubio said: “After this conflict, we will have to re-evaluate these relations. We will have to re-evaluate the value of NATO and this Alliance for our country.” As for their plans regarding Iran, Rubio said they “saw the finish line” and added: “Not today or tomorrow, but it’s approaching.”
