Trump's advisers reportedly pulled a fast one on him to prevent another international blow-up at the NATO summit Christopher Woody Ahead of the NATO summit in July, President Donald Trump's advisers were worried about another clash like the one that took place at the G7 in early June. To head off a potential showdown, White House advisers pushed NATO officials to finish a final agreement before the summit even began. Trump was only shown a broad outline of the directive, rather than the full text, which officials on both sides of the Atlantic praised. Just weeks after a G7 summit that was described as a "burning tire fire" and ended with President Donald Trump refusing to sign a communique negotiated by leaders there, Trump's advisers faced another international summit with a group for which the president had clear disdain: NATO. Seeking to avoid another international imbroglio, Trump's advisers looked for a way to prevent him from upending the formal agreement that usually comes after intense, down-to-the-wire talks among members of the alliance. The advisers, led by national security adviser John Bolton, instead pushed to have the agreement concluded before the president even left the US for the July 11 summit, five US and European officials told The New York Times. NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg backed the plan, telling ambassadors on July 4 that the usual wrangling over the agreement — renamed as a directive rather than a communique for this summit — had to be avoided. Stoltenberg asked NATO officials to have work finished on it by 10 p.m. Brussels time on July 6. And the officials, anxious over the potential for another Trump blow-up during the summit, agreed, according to The Times. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and Defense Secretary Jim Mattis also wanted to avoid another showdown like that at the G7 meeting. Work on NATO communiques usually takes months, with discussions often coming down to the wire, as various countries use the looming deadline as leverage to advance issues important to them. In past, US leaders have reviewed last-minute revisions, as President Barack Obama did at the 2016 summit in Warsaw, The Times reported. This year, however, Trump was only presented with a broad overview of the directive and not the details of the document that stretched 79 paragraphs over 23 pages. The fast-tracked directive met several goals. It formally invited Macedonia to join the alliance. It established an Atlantic Command to be based in Norfolk, Virginia, to oversee transatlantic traffic in the event of a conflict. It included a pledge by NATO members to provide 30 mechanized battalions, 30 air squadrons, and 30 warships, to be ready for use in 30 days or less, by 2020 — the "Four Thirties" plan pushed by Mattis to get NATO militaries in shape and ready to deploy. The alliance's members also completed a mobility agreement meant to allow military forces to move across national borders and bureaucratic boundaries in Europe — a problem that has plagued NATO forces on the continent. Officials from NATO and the US praised the final product. Pentagon spokesman Eric Pahon called the summit "extraordinarily successful" and it was "now strengthening the alliance." White House National Security Council spokesman Garrett Marquis echoed Pahon, saying the declaration displayed NATO's unity "across an array of tough international security challenges." The summit was not without Trump-related turmoil however. Days after the summit, and just hours after meeting Russian President Vladimir Putin in Helsinki, Finland, Trump appeared to cast doubt on the collective-defense principal that undergirds the NATO alliance. He told Fox News host Tucker Carlson that he himself had asked why US troops should be used to defend Montenegro, a small Balkan country that is NATO's newest member. "Montenegro is a tiny country with very strong people," Trump said at the time. "They are very aggressive people. They may get aggressive, and congratulations, you are in World War III." |

That is a first. Prowler owners hiding their identity from other Prowler owners. There is probably a hidden message here somewhere. |

It all makes sense now, Tommie loves free health care for all cause he plans to get his beak filed down and some new toofesses. I heard Tom bit into a marshmallow and broke 7 toofs. Tom needs new choppers soon cause when he chews his chin hits his schnozz. PS when Tom was younger he would go to kiss girls and they would try and peel his nose thinking it was a banana... |
