NATO’s Rutte in Ankara Summit:

Yes, you will have your forceful debates.

I am never worried about it.

NATO’s Rutte in Ankara Summit:

I always know that Trump and the U.S. are completely committed to NATO.

Italian PM Meloni:

I will never take money away from hospitals to buy tanks.

The idea that Italy is closing hospitals to buy weapons is ridiculous.

Italian PM Meloni:

I have not lost hope for the possibility of negotiations with Iran.

I believe that the military option has not produced particularly concrete results.

Italian PM Meloni:

Of the twelve critical raw materials identified by NATO, at least six are controlled by a single country.

We must ensure that the resources we are investing are going toward things that we fully control and over which we remain sovereign.

NATO’s Rutte in Ankara Summit:

I think we should praise Donald Trump for the fact that NATO is so much stronger.

NATO’s Rutte in Ankara Summit:

Here in Ankara, allies reaffirmed their ironclad commitment to the collective defense under Article 5—that an attack on one is an attack on all—and we will stand together.

NATO’s Rutte in Ankara Summit on Russia:

There was news yesterday that they had to put out mobile toilets because people had to wait all night for gasoline.

I can assure you one thing as a politician — in the 16th, 17th century you had to make sure there was enough bread.

In the 21st century, you have to make sure there's enough gasoline.

To any Russian young man listening, if you contemplate joining the war effort, think again.

You might be one of those 30 to 35,000 this month, next month, the month after, because your president somehow doesn't care.

NATO’s Rutte in Ankara Summit:

First of all, because I strongly believe in the 21st century that you should not attack another country like the Russians have done with Ukraine.

It's kind of crazy to do that. It's a playbook of the 19th century or the 20th century.

We don't do this in grown-up democracies anymore in the 21st century.

NATO’s Rutte on Türkiye & Greece:

Of course I'm not a commentator.

I'm there to maintain the unity of the alliance.

When there are discussions or sometimes irritants between allies, I do not comment in public so that I can be behind the scenes, if necessary, helpful.

Trump on Syria's al-Sharaa:

He has done a really fantastic job as president.

He has unified the country in a year and a half.

Trump on Syria's al-Sharaa:

He is a strong person. He is a great leader.

He is respected by everybody, including me.

We are proud to have him together.

Trump and Syrian President al-Sharaa shake hands.

Reporter: Are you going to remove Syria from the state sponsor of terrorism list?

Trump: I think I will. Yeah, I think, why wouldn't I? He's done a great job.

WATCH: Trump on Erdogan & Netanyahu:

He (Erdogan) hasn't been involved with Syria, you know, if you think he hasn't been involved with Israel at all. And he's left it alone.

I wouldn't say he's a friend because, he's not a friend of Netanyahu. They don't get along, I think, but you know, like, for me, he's been great.

Look, Türkiye’s been a fantastic ally.

They're also a NATO country.

Trump on Netanyahu:

I don't know anything about his politics. I am not sure.

I would think he should be popular.

Trump:

Israel wouldn't exist today if you didn't have me as president.

Trump on Iran’s nuclear dust:

It’s so far underground nobody's going to be able to get it except us because we have the equipment.

It’s so far down underneath a mountain, and now it's that's been determined that it would take massive machinery that we have that no other country has.

Trump on EU:

They took advantage of Syria. Al-Sharaa is bringing it back.

And I'm bringing the United States back.
