NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte said Wednesday at the alliance’s summit in Ankara that the overnight U.S. strikes on Iran were necessary.
Rutte said Iran had violated the ceasefire.
“I think it is totally crucial that the U.S. forcefully reacts,” Rutte said.
He expects NATO members to “reconfirm that Iran should never, ever get its hands on a nuclear capability” and also to reaffirm the importance of freedom of navigation in the Strait of Hormuz.
