U.S. President Donald Trump affirmed his administration's commitment to NATO's defence on Thursday, while calling on Russia to end its "destabilizing" action in Ukraine and elsewhere in the world. "We stand firmly behind Article 5," Trump said during a speech — laced with warnings about the dangers faced by Western civilization — in Warsaw, Poland. Trump praised Poland for meeting its NATO commitments, and for its recent decision to purchase the U.S.-made Patriot missile defence system. Trump was more blunt when he condemned Moscow's role in Ukraine and the Middle East. People wave Polish and U.S. flags during Trump's speech at Krasinski Square.
