Aboard Air Force One en route to the Nato summit in the Netherlands, Trump shared a personal text message from a somewhat unlikely source, BBC reported.

It was sent by Nato boss Mark Rutte who praised the American president for what he had accomplished in using US bombers to attack Iran's nuclear facilities.

"Congratulations and thank you for your decisive action in Iran, " wrote Rutte in a message the president posted to his Truth Social account. "That was truly extraordinary and something no one else dared to do."

Trump has had his differences with Nato in the past, as he's called into doubt the alliance's mutual defence agreement and the military contributions made by other member nations, according to BBC.
