📽️WATCH: REPORTER CALLS OUT NATO CHIEF FOR STAYING SILENT OVER TRUMP'S COMMENTS ON GREENLAND AND SPAIN

Reporter: "You sit next to Donald Trump in moments where he talks about conquering Greenland, lashing out at allies like Spain, starting trade wars... things that it doesn't seem like the old Mark Rutte would approve of.

Does this have any effect on your self-respect when you sit next to him like that and say nothing?"

Mark Rutte: "What I always do is acknowledge when praise is due, and I think we should praise Donald Trump for the fact that NATO is so much stronger."
