特朗普总统计划于周三，也就是北约峰会的最后一天举行新闻发布会，此前美国对伊朗发动了更多空袭，北约秘书长称此次行动“绝对必要”。
北约秘书长马克·吕特在谈及此次针对伊朗袭击霍尔木兹海峡三艘商业船只的空袭时表示：“这是非常有力的回应，我在这一点上支持你们。”
北约的此番表态正值特朗普一直敦促北约成员国增加国防开支之际。
北约年度为期两天的峰会将于周三在土耳其首都安卡拉落幕，特朗普在会上明确表示，美国与土耳其的关系要好于某些更传统的北约盟友。这位总统一直施压北约国家将年度国内生产总值的5%用于国防，并对他认为未承担起应有责任的部分成员国感到不满。他还批评了多个北约成员国未参与美伊冲突，且仍在考虑收购格陵兰岛。
特朗普周二表示，美国应该帮助土耳其，这个国家“坦白说比许多其他传统国家对美国的帮助都更多”。
周二，特朗普宣布计划解除对土耳其的制裁，并表示他正在考虑允许该国重新加入F-35战斗机项目。土耳其于2019年因使用俄罗斯国防技术被特朗普政府踢出该项目，此举被视为涉及国家安全问题。2020年，美国国会通过立法，实际上禁止向土耳其转移F-35战机。
尽管一些共和党人仍对土耳其获取F-35战机的可能性表示担忧，但特朗普称他对土耳其没有任何顾虑，并赞扬了土耳其总统雷杰普·塔伊普·埃尔多安。
“我对任何事情都毫无顾虑，”他说，“我的意思是，他作为一个国家的领导人，让这个国家变得更美好、更强大。你看得到——我的意思是，这很棒，你一下飞机，道路都很漂亮，这是件了不起的事。不，我对与土耳其相关的任何事情都没有顾虑。”
与伊朗的紧张局势也在升级，美伊谅解备忘录岌岌可危——此前伊朗袭击了霍尔木兹海峡的油轮，美国随即撤销了伊朗出售石油的普通许可。对伊朗而言，允许石油出口是推进谈判的关键一环。
特朗普将在北约峰会间隙与多位世界领导人会晤，其中包括乌克兰总统弗拉基米尔·泽连斯基。俄罗斯对乌克兰的战争是北约盟国的另一个关键议题，目前看不到解决迹象。
“花了这么长时间，太糟糕了，”特朗普周二谈及乌克兰问题时表示，“但我认为会……会有结果的。”
Trump to wrap NATO meeting with news conference as he navigates tensions with allies

President Trump plans to hold a press conference Wednesday, the final day of the NATO summit, after the U.S. launched more strikes on Iran that the alliance’s secretary general called “absolutely necessary.”
“It was a very strong response, and I’m with you on this,” NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte said of the strikes, which were in response to Iranian attacks on three commercial vessels in the Strait of Hormuz.
The support from NATO came as Mr. Trump has been urging members of the alliance to spend more on their defense.
NATO’s annual two-day summit is set to wrap up Wednesday in the Turkish capital of Ankara, where Mr. Trump made it clear the U.S. and Turkey are better friends than some more traditional NATO allies. The president has pressed NATO states to spend 5% of their annual GDP on defense, and has chafed at some members that he believes are not carrying their weight. He has also criticized several NATO members for not getting involved in the U.S.-Iran conflict, and continues to toy with acquiring Greenland.
Mr. Trump said Tuesday that the U.S. should help Turkey, a country that has “frankly has been more helpful to the United States than many other more traditional countries.”
On Tuesday, the Mr. Trump announced his plans to ease sanctions on Turkey, and said he’s considering allowing the country to reenter the the F-35 fighter jet program once again. Turkey was kicked out of the program by the Trump administration in 2019 over its use of Russian defense technology, seen as a national security concern. In 2020, Congress passed legislation effectively prohibiting the transfer of F-35 aircraft to Turkey.
While some Republicans are still expressing concerns over the possibility of Turkey acquiring F-35s, Mr. Trump said he doesn’t have any concerns about Turkey, and praised Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan.
“I have no concerns at all about anything,” he said. “I mean, he’s a leader of a country that he’s made a much better country, much more powerful country. You see it — I mean, it’s beautiful, you get off, the roads are beautiful, it’s an amazing thing. No, I have no concerns about anything having to do with Turkey.”
Tensions with Iran are also on the rise, and the U.S.-Iran memorandum of understanding is in jeopardy, after Iran struck tankers in the Strait of Hormuz and the U.S. responded by revoking a general license for Iran to sell oil. For Iran, allowing the sale of Iranian oil was a critical component of moving forward with negotiations.
Mr. Trump is meeting with a number of world leaders on the sidelines of NATO, including Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. Russia’s war in Ukraine is another key topic for NATO allies, with no resolution in sight.
“It’s too bad it took so long,” Mr. Trump said Tuesday about Ukraine. “But I think there’s going to be … something’s going to come out.”
