NATO's 32 Allies Reaffirm Article 5 as Trump's Commitment Remains in Question
π‘οΈ ANKARA β Article 5 reaffirmed by the ally Europe trusts least to honor it. π LOOK CLOSER: A forced pledge is the weakest guarantee. Ankara already produced 4% GDP contracts and S-400 sanctions relief β Article 5 text now sits beside both. For Italy and NATO's eastern flank, the clause is only as credible as the president who activates it. Europe bought the pledge; it can't buy the follow-through.
