Trump Praises UK Soldiers After Controversial Afghanistan Comments
Following criticism from veterans and politicians, Donald Trump praised UK soldiers who fought in Afghanistan, labeling them “among the greatest of all warriors.” This statement came after Trump had previously downplayed the role of NATO troops in the war and questioned the alliance’s commitment to the US, sparking international condemnation. The UK Prime Minister spoke with Trump, after which the US President made his remarks on Truth Social, which followed a backlash regarding Trump’s initial statements about NATO troops. The comments prompted responses from figures like Prince Harry, and other leaders, who emphasized the sacrifices of allied soldiers.
