Trump Tells 32 NATO Allies US No Longer Seeks Iran Regime Change
3 articles · Updated · Bloomberg · Jul 8
Summary
At a closed-door NATO summit address, Donald Trump told allies the US is no longer pursuing regime change in Iran, according to people who heard the remarks.
Trump spent much of the speech venting about Iran and accusing European partners of repeatedly failing to back Washington in its conflict with the Islamic Republic.
He also revived warnings about Europe’s migration problem, widening the speech from Iran policy to broader grievances with the continent.
The comments signaled a softer stated US objective on Iran even as Trump pressed NATO allies over burden-sharing and political support.
