Asad Mirza
Donald Trump turned NATO's Ankara summit into a one-man show - reviving Iran hostilities, threatening Spain, demanding Greenland, and needling allies - while Secretary-General Mark Rutte's flattery-and-spending strategy kept the alliance intact.

What followed was, by multiple accounts, a "marathon, high-energy performance" - the White House's own words - that left ... |
