I've been thinking about it. NATO is finally starting to step up. Trumps been beating that drum for a long time.
NATO was not listening then. So if they weren't willing to listen to the 'leader' then what's really lost other than their own sense of comfort which ironically has the impact of getting them onboard with honoring their commitments?
The problem is now that they're doing it, they've been essentially abandoned by the current administration. If there's one thing you can count on, is you can't count on the administration for anything.
