YouTube Description
as posted by the channelLast week, U.S. President Donald Trump set off a firestorm with comments dismissing the military contributions of fellow NATO members during the war in Afghanistan. This follows the president's aggressive bid for Greenland, a self-governing territory of NATO ally Denmark. The events have brought into question whether the alliance could survive without the U.S., its strongest and richest member.
