Скачать или смотреть Starmer FUMING as he demands apology from Trump for saying NATO troops AVOIDED Afghanistan frontline

British Prime Minister Keir Starmer has urged U.S. President Donald Trump to apologise for his false assertion that troops from NATO countries — other than Americans — stayed away from the front line during the war in Afghanistan.

Mr Trump made his comments on Thursday in an interview with Fox News in which he reiterated his suggestion that NATO would not support America if asked.

He said: “We’ve never needed them. They’ll say they sent some troops to Afghanistan… and they did, they stayed a little back, a little off the front lines.”
