After participating in the NATO Summit in The Hague this week, US President Donald Trump ran into the praise of leaders – including the alliance head called “Daddy” Mark Rutte.
Rutte pointed out – and the jokes of Trump – after he triggered the word “dad” while describing the reaction of the US President to Israel and the Iranian military conflict, Kopec reported.
“And then my dad sometimes has to use a strong tongue to stop (is),” Rutte quoted with a laugh at Wednesday’s summit. On Tuesday he spoke of Trump using F-Word to humiliate the Middle East.
The US President cursed Israel and Iran for the violation of the ceasefire that later dreamed. On Tuesday, by agreement on the ceasefire, Trump said that Iran and Israel were fighting “so long and so hard that they don’t know what they were doing.”
Trump laughed from the note during a press conference.
“But he did it very lovingly,” Dad, you are my dad, “Trump said, as Foreign Minister Marco Rubio said.
Rutte explains, “I didn’t call Trump Daddy”
In an interview with Reuters after the Rutte Summit, she said he used the word “dad” to describe how some allies seem to see the United States rather than Trump specifically.
“In Europe, have I ever heard countries that say,” Hey, Mark, will the US stay with us? “And I said it sounds a bit like a little child asking his father,” Hey, you still stay with your family? ” Rutte said.
“So in this sense I used my dad, (it’s not) that I called President Trump Daddy.”
Asked if this means that other NATO members were as children who were now growing up to spend more on the defense after the promise, Rutte said they have already grown up, but realized that they had to strengthen and “balance” defense spending with the United States.
