WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Biden on Tuesday said Donald Trump's comments calling into question the U.S. commitment to defend its NATO allies from attack were “dangerous” and “un-American,” seizing on the former president's comments that sowed fresh fears among U.S. partners about its dependability on the global stage.
Speaking from the White House as he encouraged the House to take up a Senate-passed aid bill to fund Ukraine's efforts to hold off a two-year Russian invasion, Biden said Trump's comments about the mutual defense pact were “dangerous and shocking.”
“The whole world heard it and the worst thing is he means it," Biden added.
