HELSINGBORG - NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte confirmed a dramatic shift in global military posture today, announcing that European allies are pre-positioning naval vessels to the Middle East as the Strait of Hormuz remains "choked off". In a sweeping address, Rutte welcomed US President Donald Trump's overnight decision to deploy 5,000 additional troops to Poland , while simultaneously urging Europe to prepare for an eventual US pivot. Addressing the transatlantic rift following the US-Iran conflict, Rutte revealed that European nations, including Romania, have rapidly amended legislation to grant US forces unfettered access to military bases. The NATO chief also issued a stark warning regarding the defense of Ukraine, noting that only six or seven allies are currently bearing the financial burden of purchasing critical US military equipment. #nato, #marcorubio, #trump, #usmilitary, #iran, #straitofhormuz, #breakingnews, #geopolitics, #markrutte, #ukrainewar, #russia, #worldnews,
