Trump raises Nato exit again, faces resistance in Congress
US President Donald Trump, during a private lunch, again raised the idea of leaving Nato, continuing his criticism of the alliance.
Any withdrawal would require approval from Congress, a step Senate Majority Leader John Thune said would be difficult.
“We got an awful lot of people who think that Nato is a very critical, incredibly successful post-World War II alliance,” Thune said.
“I think in the world today, you need allies,” he added.
