NATO boss declares European backing for Trump after Iran leader eliminated

"The Europeans, Canada, Mark Carney, the United States, the American president… All for one, one for all, because everybody supports, here in Europe, the fact that [Ayatollah Ali] Khamenei is gone, that the nuclear capability is gone, that the ballistic missile program has been now degraded — which was a big threat for Europe, for Israel, for the whole region," he said.

Rutte commended Trump for crippling the Iranian regime’s military capabilities and eliminating Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, saying European leaders expressed broad backing during conversations over the weekend.

Rutte said he personally spoke with several top European leaders in the immediate aftermath of the strikes and views their responses as supportive.
