NATO frictions flare as Trump laments allies’ refusal to join Iran war

TL;DR Summary
After a private Washington meeting, NATO says Trump was clearly disappointed that US allies refused to join the Iran war, even as a two-week ceasefire opened the Hormuz Strait. Trump has criticized NATO as a 'paper tiger' and floated leaving, but a 2023 law requires congressional approval to withdraw. Some allies limited cooperation during the conflict, while others backed post-ceasefire security plans as lawmakers defend the alliance.
