After meetings in D.C., JD Vance joined Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni for an Easter lunch in Rome. Meloni, who praised her "fantastic" White House meeting, reaffirmed her support for Trump’s stance against "woke ideology." Trump, who has been critical of the EU, made an exception for Meloni, his only invited EU leader in January. Meloni is pushing for U.S. tariffs on the EU to be reduced, promising increased gas purchases and Italian investments in the U.S. Trump accepted her invitation to meet European leaders in Rome, but no date has been set. #GiorgiaMeloni #JDVance #Trump #USItalyRelations #EULeaders #PoliticalTies #Tariffs #Italy #USPolitics #MeloniInRome #TradePolicy #WokeIdeology #TrumpSupporters #ItalianInvestments #GasPurchases #TrumpEU #Diplomacy #EconomicPolicy #USForeignPolicy #WhiteHouseMeeting #EUExceptions #USItalyRelations #MeloniVisit #PoliticalAllies #EUTrade #GlobalPolitics #USTariffs #TrumpAdministration #PoliticalDynamics #MeloniTrump #EuropeRelations Also Read US Will Drop Ukraine-Russia Peace Efforts If No Progress Within Days: Marco Rubio :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-will-drop-ukraine-russia-peace-efforts-if-no-progress-within-days-marco-rubio-4127371.html?ref=DMDesc China Brushes Off US Tariff Threats, Warns Against 'Numbers Game' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/china-brushes-off-us-tariff-threats-warns-against-numbers-game-4126079.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Administration Freezes USD 2.2 Billion In Grants To Harvard University :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-administration-freezes-usd-2-2-billion-in-grants-to-harvard-university-4124075.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.194~HT.410~GR.121~

Rubio Slams NATO Allies As ‘Junior Partners’, Demands 5% Defense Spend Ahead Of June Summit

In a bold rebuke of NATO dynamics, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio has called out European allies for falling short on defense spending. Labeling them “junior partners,” Rubio pushed for a drastic hike—up to 5% of GDP—to maintain NATO’s credibility. At his first NATO foreign ministers meeting, he reassured US commitment but demanded others pull their weight. Echoing this, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth warned Europe that US protection is no longer guaranteed unless NATO nations step up. The upcoming June summit will directly address these simmering tensions. #NATO #Rubio #DefenseSpending #USForeignPolicy #MarcoRubio #NATOAllies #NATOSummit #TrumpAdministration #EuropeDefense #Pentagon #PeteHegseth #MikeWaltz #NATOBudget #5PercentGDP #MilitarySpending #USvsEurope #NATOTensions #ForeignAffairs #GlobalSecurity #NATOFuture Also Read US Will Drop Ukraine-Russia Peace Efforts If No Progress Within Days: Marco Rubio :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-will-drop-ukraine-russia-peace-efforts-if-no-progress-within-days-marco-rubio-4127371.html?ref=DMDesc Elon Musk-Marco Rubio Clash Over Staff Cuts In Explosive Meeting In Trump's Presence; US Prez Denies Blow Up :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/elon-musk-marco-rubio-clash-over-staff-cuts-in-explosive-meeting-in-trumps-presence-us-prez-denies-4089603.html?ref=DMDesc US-Europe Divide Deepens Over Ukraine As Trump Challenges NATO's Approach :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-europe-divide-deepens-over-ukraine-as-trump-challenges-natos-approach-4080283.html?ref=DMDesc
