In what seems to be a digital take on stabilising geopolitical alliances, Mark Rutte–the secretary general of NATO–has been revealed to have texted US President Donald Trump, praising the US' latest offence against Iran.
Rutte's message–which seemed a casual approach to praise Trump–is viewed by those in the field as a way for NATO to maintain its alliance with the US, especially given the superpower is a key driving force for the organisation.
