THE HAGUE (Reuters) -NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte said on Tuesday he had no doubt the United States is committed to the alliance's Article 5 mutual defence clause, after remarks by President Donald Trump cast renewed doubt on his willingness to protect allies.
On his way to a NATO summit in The Hague, Trump said there were "numerous" definitions of Article 5 of the Washington Treaty, which declares that an attack against one NATO member shall be considered an attack against all of them.
"I have no doubt that the U.S. is totally committed to NATO, totally committed to Article 5," Rutte told reporters in The Hague.
