Trump
arrives in Europe for annual Nato summit
Air Force
One has landed at Amsterdam’s Schiphol airport, bringing Donald Trump to a Nato
summit at The Hague at which he is expected to take a victory lap over the
ceasefire and apparent conclusion of the short Iran-Israel war.
His
arrival comes as Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian announced the “end of the
12-day war imposed by Israel”, in a message to the nation carried by the
official IRNA news agency, reported by AFP.
“Today,
after the heroic resistance of our great nation, whose determination makes
history, we are witnessing the establishment of a truce and the ending of this
12-day war imposed by the adventurism and provocation” of Israel, Pezeshkian
said.
Trump
will be formally greeted by King Willem-Alexander and Queen Máxima of the
Netherlands, and will attend a private dinner for Nato leaders later, according
to his schedule.
The
president’s trip will be brief: he will attend the summit on Wednesday and head
straight back to Washington DC to rejoin efforts to persuade senators to pass
his wide-ranging spending agenda known as the “big, beautiful bill” before the
4 July holiday.
