President Trump is returning home from the NATO summit in Turkey.
“He capped off his visit to Ankara with a few parting shots at some U.S. allies and largely”
deflected questions about the future of the U.S. as real war with Iran. We have more from NPR's Deepa Shiveram. Trump declared that the memorandum of understanding signed between the U.S. and Iran just three weeks ago is now over.
The conflict never fully subsided, but now Trump is threatening to hit civilian infrastructure
in Iran, which experts have warned could constitute a war crime. Before departing Ankara, Trump held a lengthy press conference, defending the war as a success.

His two-day trip also included a one-on-one meeting with Ukrainian leader Volodomir Zelensky, where Trump said Ukraine could have a license to make their own patriot missiles to help defend against Russia. Deepa Shiveram and PR News.
