Trump Meets With NATO Chief Amid Promises of Massive Shakeup

President-elect Donald Trump met with NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte at Mar-a-Lago as the organization fears a shakeup following his victory.

The meeting, first revealed in a statement late on Saturday, took place on Friday. The statement said that the two “discussed the range of global security issues facing the Alliance.”

“The Secretary General and his team also met with Congressman Mike Waltz and members of the President-elect’s national security team,” it added.

In a post on X after the meeting, Rep. Mike Waltz (R-FL) echoed Trump’s line on the organization following his 2016 campaign.

“A strong NATO that restores deterrence and peace requires all member nations to do their part commensurate with their economic strength!” he said.
