JAKARTA - British Defense Minister (Menhan) John Healey emphasized that the British Government must act based on its assessment of the Middle East, not based on US President Donald Trump's social media (social media) posts.
"In the end, I prefer our actions to speak for themselves," he said at a Ministry of Defense press conference in London, Friday, April 10, quoted by The Telegraph.
Healey said Trump's permission to use a British military base at the start of the war against Iran was a benefit in itself for the US government's military operations.
"And if you look, even in the current conflict, the base permissions that we have agreed in the UK with the US are very valuable for their military operations," he continued.
Hailey emphasized that the British action reflected NATO's attitude, not a threat or chatter from social media. Such tendencies make NATO members also firmly stand as Britain.
"If we focus on our actions rather than just exchanging words and social media posts, then the fundamentals for me remain the same. The fundamentals for me remain the same, namely that America is absolutely committed, with great benefits and contributions, to NATO," he said.
