Donald Trump's vision "doesn't stick to reality" and continues to ignore "what the intelligence services and allies tell him"

CNN Portugal11 September 2026 at 12:10

Rui Henrique Santos, a CNN Portugal commentator, analyzed how the President of the United States, Donald Trump, has been conducting the war in Iran, noting that his vision "doesn't stick to reality" and that he continues to ignore what the intelligence services and allies tell him.

The commentator highlighted Trump's speech at the Republican convention as a central element of this analysis, showing the way the president has followed an approach regardless of the costs it brings to the country.

Santos underlined that Trump has maintained a stance that disregards the information and advice coming from US intelligence services and international allies, remaining faithful to his own vision of the situation.

Rui Henrique Santos's analysis on CNN Portugal thus focuses on the discrepancy between Trump's approach and the reality of the facts, particularly regarding the conflict with Iran.

Rutte says Allies remain alongside the US as they did in 2001

NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte said on the 25th anniversary of the September 11, 2001 attacks that allies remain alongside the United States, as they did 25 years ago. In a social media post, Rutte recalled that after the attacks, NATO activated for the first and only time in its history Article 5, which establishes collective defense. The attacks, which killed nearly three thousand people including nine Portuguese and Portuguese-descendant victims, triggered the "war on terror" and the military intervention in Afghanistan. Rutte emphasized that "America's friends and allies in NATO were with you then and continue to be with you today."
