Nothing has changed. The Netherlands are staying on the straight and narrow even if they might blow hot air under the guise of "EU solidarity", and that gets them cushty NATO jobs, too ;)
- ben_w 10mo agoTrump's threatening the sovreignty of two NATO members while also being skeptical of the value of keeping the US itself in NATO and suggesting the US won't defend any NATO member that gets attacked.
- mytailorisrich 10mo agoMaybe so but that does not change a thing to the bilateral relation between US and Netherlands... which is as tight as can be, shall we say, we've seen it as recently as October with Nexperia.
