President Donald Trump arrived in Turkey on Wednesday as tensions within NATO deepen. The alliance is strained by Russian military attacks and growing U.S. frustration with its members.
Trump has often complained that NATO allies refuse to follow U.S. requests to help clear the Strait of Hormuz. The waterway is a key route for oil shipments, and the U.S. is leading a campaign against Iran there. Without allied support, the operation faces delays.
