He said ministers are laying groundwork for what could be one of NATO's most significant leader summits, and highlighted tensions within the alliance over US military actions in the Middle East, including discussions about potential changes to NATO membership.",
        "content": "<p>Moscow (ANTARA) \u2014 NATO member states are currently not ready to\nproduce ammunition at the speed that will be required in the future,\nsaid United States Secretary of State Marco Rubio on Friday. \u201cClearly\nfor the world, for all of us in the alliance and outside the alliance,\nthat at present we are not able to produce ammunition at the level\nneeded for future needs. This is something that must be addressed,\nsomething we can work on together. This is something we want to work on\ntogether,\u201d Rubio said at a meeting of NATO Foreign Ministers in Sweden.\nRubio said ministers met to lay the groundwork for what he described as\n\u201cone of the most important leader summits in NATO history,\u201d scheduled to\ntake place in July in Ankara. He also said that US President Donald\nTrump was frustrated with the response of several NATO allies to US\nmilitary operations in the Middle East. \u201cAll of that has been well\ndocumented. It must be discussed. It will not be resolved immediately.\nIt will be discussed today, and it is something that needs to be\ndiscussed at the leader level,\u201d Rubio said. On 1 April, Trump said he\nwas seriously considering withdrawing the United States from NATO after\nallies refused to join in the US-Israel war against Iran. He stated he\nno longer sees Europe as a reliable defence partner after European\ncountries refused his plea to send warships to that strategic sea lane.\nOn 9 April, NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte said a number of alliance\nmembers were \u201csomewhat slow\u201d in supporting the US campaign against Iran\nbecause they had not been forewarned by Trump. However, Rutte added that\nalmost all allies have now provided the support Washington has\nrequested. Source: Sputnik\/RIA Novosti Translator: Kuntum Khaira\nRiswan<\/p>",
