The #NATOSummit starts on July 7 in Ankara. Next month’s pivotal meeting will serve as a progress report on the 5% defense commitment. Under POTUS's leadership, Allies are moving beyond commitments and returning NATO to its warfighting roots.

Marked 82 years since D-Day with reverence and gratitude. That day and those that followed turned the tide against tyranny and changed the course of history. We owe a great debt to the patriots who gave so much in freedom’s name.

On D-Day, the fate of the free world hung in the balance. Thousands of brave Americans advanced into chaos to save civilization. The tide turned because of their unshakable spirit. We stand forever grateful for these heroes. God bless them.
