Oh my! Another one of the candidates vying to be the Republican nominee for President wants USA to leave NATO.
>>>One of the better-polling Republican presidential candidates said on Monday that withdrawing the U.S. from NATO was a “reasonable idea” and that he was “reevaluating” whether America should remain a member of the United Nations.
POLITICO asked Vivek Ramaswamy, the entrepreneur polling fourth nationally and in Iowa, about a
Rolling Stone article detailing how the GOP frontrunner, former President Donald Trump, was open to taking the U.S. out of the transatlantic military alliance. He answered by supporting the notion, but didn’t commit to following through if he were elected president.
“It’s a reasonable idea that I have considered,” he said in a brief statement.
Ramaswamy didn’t detail, even after questioning, why he was amenable to a NATO withdrawal. Unsolicited, the candidate added that “I am also open to reevaluating U.S. involvement in the UN” without expounding further, even after more queries on the subject. ...<<<
His stance means at least two of the top four Republicans vying for the presidency are skeptical of America’s involvement in post-World War II institutions.
