Trump praised for demanding NATO accountability after decades of 'picking up the tab'

Former White House press secretary Sean Spicer praises US President Donald Trump for holding NATO accountable after years of US protection. “For decades, as long as America sat back and picked up the tab for its European friends, everybody was happy,” Mr Spicer told Sky News host Andrew Bolt. “As soon as we started calling balls and strikes, making it clear that they weren’t living up to their NATO obligations, everyone started questioning the relationship. “I just find it interesting that we’re all good, happy friends, as long as America is doing its role picking up the tab for the European incursions, protecting them, covering all the military aspects of their security. “As soon as we start holding them accountable and calling them out when we need their assistance, it’s what are we doing to undermine the friendship?”
