Trump is saying that our allies cannot count on us if they are attacked, even though we have a signed treaty, undermining the global system which has kept peace in Europe for 70 years and was the bulwark against global communism.

Speaking to the New York Times, Mr Trump said the US would only come to the aid of allies if they have "fulfilled their obligations to us".

Members of Nato have all signed a treaty that says they will come to the aid of any member that is attacked. ...

Mr Trump's comments hit at the fundamental basis of the Atlantic alliance; that an attack on one ally is an attack on all.

Under Article 5 of Nato's founding treaty, allies are bound to come to the aid of a member under attack. ...

Mr Trump's positions will be seen by Washington's Nato partners as at best eccentric and at worst alarming.​
