NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte delivered a direct reminder to the EU in Brussels. Brushing aside criticism after Donald Trump published private messages between them and telling EU lawmakers, he did not mind the disclosure.

Rutte reminded the European assembly that without the United States there is “no way” for Europe to defend itself. WATCH:
