Europe left red-faced as Trump mocks Iran and NATO while Rutte showers him with flattery at summit [Video]

Europe left red-faced as Trump mocks Iran and NATO while Rutte showers him with flattery at summit

At NATO’s 2025 summit in The Hague, U.S. President Donald Trump hijacked the global stage — demanding 5% defense spending, mocking Iran and Israel as “kids in a schoolyard,” and claiming NATO leaders secretly praise him. But the real shock? NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte calling Trump a “truly extraordinary peacemaker” — even repeating the bizarre line: “Daddy, you’re my daddy.” European diplomats were stunned, embarrassed, and silent — as Trump turned a strategic summit into a personal victory lap. Critics say the event was scripted to feed Trump’s ego, not focus on Ukraine, Iran, or NATO’s long-term survival. So… is NATO collapsing under political flattery? Or is Trump just reshaping it on his own terms? #Trump #NATO #TrumpSpeech #MarkRutte #NATO2025 #Iran #Ukraine #Geopolitics #EuropeNews #DefenseSpending #TrumpMocking #TrumpNews #GlobalPolitics #USForeignPolicy #TrumpVsEurope #TheHagueSummit #TrumpNATO2025 #TrumpRutte #TrumpDaddy #TrumpIran #TrumpNATO Also Read ‘Great American Pilots Very Upset’: Trump Flips Again on Iran Strike Damage :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-debates-us-strikes-impact-on-iran-nuclear-programme-011-7783495.html?ref=DMDesc US President Trump Hosts Pakistan Army Chief Asim Munir Amid Regional Tensions :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-president-trump-hosts-pakistan-army-chief-asim-munir-011-4185603.html?ref=DMDesc Mike Johnson Dismisses Elon Musk's Criticism of Republican Tax and Budget Bill :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/mike-johnson-downplays-musks-influence-on-republican-tax-bill-011-4175853.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~PR.274~ED.194~GR.124~

Zelensky Urges E5 and NATO: 28,000 Iranian Drones Launched — Make This War Too Expensive for Putin [Video]

Zelensky Urges E5 and NATO: 28,000 Iranian Drones Launched — Make This War Too Expensive for Putin

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has issued an urgent appeal to NATO and the E5 members, highlighting the unprecedented scale of Russian drone warfare. With over 28,000 Iranian-made Shahed drones launched against Ukraine since the invasion began—and 2,736 in June alone—Zelensky is demanding stronger air defense systems, economic retaliation, and full political isolation of Moscow. In a powerful address, Zelensky calls on the EU to impose a $30 oil price cap, block Russia’s shadow fleet, and make this war too expensive for Putin to sustain. Backed by soundbites and footage from the frontlines, this report dives into Ukraine’s escalating fight to defend Europe’s eastern flank. #Zelensky #UkraineWar #ShahedDrones #RussiaUkraine #NATO #IranianDrones #Putin #UkraineDefense #E5Summit #StopPutin #VolodymyrZelensky #DroneWarfare #RussiaSanctions #EUUnity #OilPriceCap Also Read Russia Unleashes Record Overnight Drone Attack On Ukraine Amid Peace Talks :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/russia-unleashes-record-overnight-drone-attack-on-ukraine-amid-peace-talks-4176255.html?ref=DMDesc Ukrainian Ex-DJ Named As Alleged 'Mastermind' Of Russia Airbase Drone Attacks :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/ukrainian-ex-dj-named-as-alleged-mastermind-of-russia-airbase-drone-attacks-4171927.html?ref=DMDesc Ukraine Hits Russia's Crimea Bridge Using 1,100 Kilograms Of Explosives :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/ukraine-hits-russias-crimea-bridge-using-1-100-kilograms-of-explosives-4171479.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~ED.346~PR.274~

NATO chief calls Trump ‘daddy’ after F-bomb rant on Iran & Israel |Rutte defends expletive diplomacy [Video]

NATO chief calls Trump ‘daddy’ after F-bomb rant on Iran & Israel |Rutte defends expletive diplomacy

In a bizarre twist at the NATO summit, Secretary General Mark Rutte defended U.S. President Donald Trump’s foul-mouthed outburst over the Iran-Israel ceasefire collapse — calling it “daddy using strong language.” The expletive-laden rant came just hours after Trump announced a truce that quickly fell apart. During a press conference, Trump compared the two nations to schoolyard kids, prompting Rutte to chime in with the now-viral “daddy” remark. Trump doubled down with jokes and leaked private texts showing Rutte praising his leadership.

“He looks terrible like”—Trump Blasts India-born 'Socialist Muslim' Zohran Mamdani | NYC Mayrol Poll

Donald Trump has launched a scathing personal attack on Zohran Mamdani — the 33-year-old Indian-origin socialist who just won New York City's Democratic mayoral primary. Calling him a "100% communist lunatic" with a "grating voice" and “terrible looks,” Trump didn't hold back. The president also lashed out at progressive Democrats like AOC and Chuck Schumer for backing Mamdani, warning that NYC is "falling to socialism." Who is Zohran Mamdani? Can a Marxist win New York? And why is Trump going nuclear over this primary upset? Watch the full story. #Trump #ZohranMamdani #NYCMayorRace #IndianAmerican #SocialistMayor #AOC #USPolitics #MiraNair #DemocraticPrimary #TrumpRage #DSA #ProgressivePolitics #NYC2025 ~HT.410~PR.274~ED.102~GR.124~

Trump explodes at CNN reporter Natasha Bertrand over Iran bombing report | “Fire her now — she lied”

U.S. President Donald Trump has launched a blistering attack on CNN journalist Natasha Bertrand, demanding she be "fired and thrown out like a dog" over her reporting on the Iran bombing strikes. In a fiery Truth Social post, Trump slammed CNN as a "fake news network" and accused Bertrand of lying about the U.S. military’s success in Iran, calling her coverage “disgraceful” and “dishonest.” CNN is standing by their reporter, but Trump’s fury hasn’t cooled. The explosive clash centers around a U.S. intelligence assessment contradicting Trump's claim of "total obliteration" in Iran. Who’s telling the truth — the intelligence community or Trump? This is more than a media feud — it’s a battle over truth, power, and narrative control. #Trump #CNN #NatashaBertrand #DonaldTrump #FakeNews #IranStrikes #USMilitary #TruthSocial #TrumpVsCNN #MediaWars #B2Bombers #DIA #IranNews #PoliticalDrama #WhiteHouse

Trump To Send 'Hard To Get' Patriot Missile Systems To Ukraine? | Trump’s Big Message To Russia

U.S. President Donald Trump, addressing a deeply emotional question from a Ukrainian journalist and soldier’s wife, said the U.S. might provide Patriot missile systems to Ukraine but emphasized their scarcity due to American needs and ongoing supply to Israel. Trump called the question “very good” and noted how visibly upset she was. His comments highlighted the growing strain on U.S. missile inventories amid rising global conflicts. The exchange comes as Ukraine pleads for more air defense against escalating Russian attacks. #Trump #Ukraine #Israel #PatriotMissile #MissileDefense #USMilitaryAid #UkraineWar #Zelensky #Biden #TrumpSpeech #TrumpUkraine #AirDefense #USIsraelTies #DefensePolitics #MiddleEastTensions #UkraineCrisis #MissileShortage #WhiteHouse #BreakingNews #WorldNews Also Read Trump’s Iran Strike Claims Under Scrutiny: Intelligence Reports Raise Doubts About ‘Total Obliteration’ :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-s-iran-strike-claims-under-scrutiny-intelligence-reports-raise-doubts-about-total-obliterati-7783233.html?ref=DMDesc Swearing at the World Stage: Trump’s Anger Reveals the Limits of U.S. Mediation in the Israel-Iran Conflict :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/swearing-at-the-world-stage-trump-s-anger-reveals-the-limits-of-u-s-mediation-in-the-israel-iran-c-7781983.html?ref=DMDesc Trump to Israel: ‘DO NOT DROP THOSE BOMBS’ – Issues Blunt Warning After Ceasefire Breach :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-to-israel-do-not-drop-those-bombs-issues-blunt-warning-after-ceasefire-breach-7781905.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~ED.102~
