Rubio dismisses speculation US could leave NATO as 'hysteria' [View all]

Was the dude asleep for the last 3 months?

Fears that Washington might ditch the Western military alliance are "unwarranted," US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said ahead of Thursday's talks with NATO counterparts.

Rubio, speaking at NATO headquarters, put on a brave face to calm European anxieties that the US might scale back its commitment or even consider leaving the alliance.

"Some of this hysteria and hyperbole that I see in the global media and some domestic media in the US about NATO is unwarranted – US President Trump has made clear he supports NATO," Rubio told reporters.
