Sets direct request to Trump: Be more serious on NATO issue

In a public statement, Macro has stressed that NATO is determined not only by actions, but also by mutual trust keeping them united, it broadcasts Klankosova.tv.

I believe that organisations and alliances like NATO are determined by what remains to be understood, i.e., the trust that supports them. Hence, if you doubt your commitment every day, it affects its own substance”, he expresses it.

The French president has underlined that all signatories of the North Atlantic Treaty have received clear responsibilities and should not give constant comments on any global development, but make themselves available when the allies need it.

“We need to be serious, and if you want to be serious, you don't have to behave by saying the opposite of what you said the previous day”, has declared Macro, adding that “has many words” in the current political disinformation.

He has also commented on the situation in Hormuz Strait, calling it unrealistic to launch a military operation for its forced opening, while in parallel, dialogue is required for resolving the conflict.

Meanwhile, US President Donald Trump has stated in an interview for British media that he is seriously considering the possibility of withdrawing from NATO.

According to him, this stance is linked to the unwillingness of allied countries to send ships to the Strait of Hormuz.

The closure of this strategic route from Iran, as a result of tensions and attacks between the United States and Israel, has directly affected global markets, causing occasional increases in oil prices.

Hormuz Strait remains a key point for the world economy, as prior to the start of the war on February 28th, about a fifth of the global oil supply was passed through it. /Periscope
