NATO Summit, Trump taunted by the allies

The incident was filmed by a Canadian TV movie at Buckingham Palace during the reception offered on Tuesday by the queen and Prince Charles to guests allied with subtitled images by Trudeau, Johnson, Emmanuel Macron, Mark Rutte and Princess Anna to confabulate glasses in but no. "Was this why you were late?", We hear Johnson ask Macron, back from a bilateral with Trump dilated beyond measure by the tycoon in front of the media. Trudeau replies sarcastically in place of the President of France: "He was late because he had a 40-minute press conference not scheduled". Obvious allusion to Trump with final hilarity.

Trump, that with Trudeau he had already been caught in the past, he didn't take it well. He waited for the summit to stop. Then he placed the jab at the end of the last of a series of face-to-face contours with Chancellor Angela Merkel at his side. Trudeau, he began condescending, "is a nice guy. But I flushed him out that he doesn't pay 2%" on the GDP of defense contributions to NATO. "He doesn't pay 2%, but he has to pay it because Canada has the money – he went on – and I guess he isn't too happy" to hear it. To then give him a hypocrite.

The curtain obscures the results claimed by Stoltenberg: the formalization of commitments to increase appropriations to the alliance, increased by 160 billion dollars from 2016 and destined to a further leap up to 400 billion more by 2024; or again the common line found on Russia, between "deterrence and dialogue"; on the unpublished appeal to China regarding disarmament; on strengthening missions to protect the borders of Poland and the Baltic countries; on the identification of "emerging threats", from the challenge of space now also seen as a military scenario, to terrorism, to the cyberwar, to the question of new technologies and the infiltrations that can derive from them.
