The White House has reportedly developed a detailed NATO 'naughty and nice' list ahead of NATO chief Mark Rutte's Washington visit, categorizing allies based on their support for US operations against Iran. Countries like Romania, Poland, and the Baltics that opened bases or backed Operation Epic Fury are in line for increased troop deployments and military cooperation, while Spain, France, and the UK face consequences including troop withdrawals and reduced arms sales. Romania's Mihail Kogalniceanu Air Base was directly used for the air campaign against Iran, and Poland already funds nearly the entire cost of hosting 10,000 US troops. The blunt message from Washington is that allies must back America's wars or face being cut off, though moving troops is costly and slow.
