America is willing to find new friends, and to forge new partnerships, where shared interests align, the US President Donald Trump said during his address to a joint session of Congress tonight.
He also said that it is not compassionate, but reckless to allow uncontrolled entry from places where proper vetting cannot occur.
"Those given the high honor of admission to the United States should support this country and love its people and its values. We cannot allow a beachhead of terrorism to form inside America. We cannot allow our nation to become a sanctuary for extremists,” Trump said.
Trump also asserted that his efforts are already paying off in compelling NATO members to pay their fair share for the security alliance.
“We strongly support NATO, but our partners must meet their financial obligations. And now, based on our very strong and frank discussions, they are beginning to do just that," he stressed.
US President said the money “is pouring in” from other NATO countries.
