Trump committed to NATO's common defence

US President Donald Trump says United States is committed to Article 5 of the NATO charter, which requires each member of the alliance to come to the defence of any other.

"I'm committing the United States and have committed, but I'm committing the United States to Article 5. And certainly we are there to protect," Trump said at a joint news conference with Romanian President Klaus Iohannis in the White House Rose Garden on Friday.
US allies were disturbed last month when Trump did not personally affirm his commitment to Article 5 during a NATO summit in Brussels.
