Donald Trump announced that the United States does not require assistance from its international allies, including NATO members, for military operations against Iran.
According to his statement, most NATO member states informed the U.S. that they will not participate in the military campaign, despite their shared consensus that Iran must be prevented from acquiring a nuclear weapon. He expressed no surprise at this decision, characterizing the transatlantic alliance as a "one-way street" where the U.S. provides protection without receiving reciprocal support in times of need.
Citing the success of American military efforts, Trump emphasized that the U.S. never needed NATO's help, explicitly extending this dismissal to key Pacific allies such as Japan, Australia, and South Korea. He concluded by asserting that as the leader of the world's most powerful nation, the United States does not need anyone's help.
