Speaking to reporters in Washington about the war on terror following attacks in Belgium this morning, Ted Cruz slammed Donald Trump's plan to "retreat from NATO."





TED CRUZ: It is striking that the day after Donald Trump called for America weakening NATO, withdrawing from NATO, we see Brussels, where NATO is headquartered, attacked by terrorists.



Donald Trump is wrong that America should withdraw from the world and abandon our allies.



Donald Trump is wrong that America should retreat from NATO, hand Putin a major victory, and while he's at it hand ISIS a major victory.
