Friendly Fire!

In its worst nightmares, NATO never expected to face an imminent confrontation with its largest member, who threatens to swallow one of its countries, claiming it lacks the ability to defend itself if invaded by its enemies, "China and Russia," even though the dealmaker never stopped flirting with the "Dragon" and courting the "Bear" before turning against Ukraine and becoming one of its "staunchest friends."
Months ago, the alliance conducted an assessment of the challenges facing the "Iron Curtain" and, in light of it, decided to raise its military budget by 5 percent, as part of a defensive doctrine that considers Russia a potential threat to the alliance, before waking up to a threat from within that promises to undermine its pillars, remove the nuclear umbrella from its allies' heads, and demand a "protection bill" with a capriciousness that lacks the slightest sense of responsibility, leaving the alliance facing a financial apparatus that does not hesitate to impose "political tolls."
The "sick man" wanted to find a doctor in Washington to treat his pains, only to find that he had been left to suffer his pains alone after the doctor decided to close the clinic and refrain from providing treatment.
Perhaps the question that arises from this confusing drama is, if Trump does all this to his allies, what can he do to his enemies? The bullet that hit "NATO" from one of its members is greater than what it is wary of receiving from some of its enemies.
