NATO’s Rutte says Iran must no longer pose threat

NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte said a recent missile incident in Turkey was serious and showed the alliance remains vigilant, but added that Article 5 was not in order.

Rutte told Reuters NATO supports US President Donald Trump for taking out Iran’s nuclear and missile capabilities and stressed that Iran must no longer pose a threat.

He said it was difficult to assess how the situation in Iran would end, but added that his sense was the US “knows what it is doing.”
