Former United States President Donald Trump stated in a post on Truth Social that he was the main cause of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization's (NATO) current strength.
US President Joe Biden stated during his State of the Union address that NATO is the "strongest military alliance the world has ever seen," which prompted Trump to respond by saying that "NATO only became strong, because of me, I got the NATO Nations to pay up. They were almost all delinquent." He added in a later post that "under other Presidents, Nato was broke."
Responding to Biden's allegation that he allowed Russia's military operation in Ukraine by telling his then-Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin to "do whatever the hell" he wanted, Trump wrote that "Putin only invaded Ukraine because he has no respect for Biden."
