Rubio ratchets up pressure on NATO at key summit

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio criticized NATO's relevance after key allies refused to support Washington's 'Operation Epic Fury' in Iran, citing denied access to military bases during the conflict. Tensions with NATO have escalated following the war in Iran, with President Trump accusing allies of insufficient support and announcing troop shifts in Europe, including redeploying 5,000 troops to Poland from Germany. The upcoming July NATO summit in Turkey is expected to address U.S. disappointment with the alliance.
