According to Mr. Trump, the war could start because of NATO's principle of collective defense, according to which, attacking one of the alliance members will force the remaining countries to participate in military actions.
The news reported that the host asked the US President about Montenegro joining NATO in 2017: "Why should my son go to Montenegro to protect it from attack?"
Trump replied that he asked himself the same question.
"Montenegro is a strong people, a very aggressive people. They can get angry, and, congratulations! - World War III begins!" - Mr. Trump said.
The US President also added that it is unfair that NATO countries are currently not contributing the necessary funds to the alliance's budget to cover defense spending.
