Rutte’s comments came ‌after ⁠a meeting with ⁠US President Donald Trump at the White House earlier in the day, Reuters reported.

During an interview with CNN, the NATO chief ⁠was asked if ‌he believed ‌NATO countries were tested and ‌failed.

“Some of them yes, ‌but a large majority of European countries, and that’s what we discussed today, ‌have done what they promised before in a case ⁠like ⁠this,” he told CNN.

Rutte said he had a “frank and open” discussion with Trump, where the Republican expressed disappointment with America’s allies.

He said he pointed to Trump that European countries assisted with logistics and other commitments.
