    No, I wouldn't call that diplomacy.
    Not unless they are planning on arresting or assassinating him When he gets there.

      It's diplomacy. Nothing more, nothing less

      It's a nice way of showing your folks what you really think of that madman, while at the same time making the idiot feel good about himself. I've seen European politicians do something similar in the past.

        I can only provide some sample articles that reference a confirmation from Rutte's office. I don't think they put out a statement or a release, I think reporters called the office and got confirmation that way. Not sure you'll be able to find a public statement.

        https://www.france24.com/en/europe/20250624-trump-posts-nato-chief-gushing-message-praise-extraordinary-iran-action-rutte

        Here's a French one that theoretically isn't bound to gobble Trumps knob.

        "Congratulations and thank you for your decisive action in Iran, that was truly extraordinary and something no one else dared to do. It makes us safer," Rutte wrote in a message shared by Trump on Truth Social – and confirmed by the NATO chief's office.

          Thanks.
          What a crazy message to sent! But to be fair and after looking a bit further into this, is seems like this is what diplomacy looks like at this point of time. At least towards the USA.

          Stroke the big ego to make sure it doesn't explode in your face

            Probably. But who knows. And the fact that the only cope is "it's just a negotiating tactic" like MAGA after prices increase from tariffs is giving me a headache. What a time to be alive.

                  This is why you and I aren't diplomats.

                  If the head of NATO is dependent upon the USA for lots of support to NATO, then it is in NATO's interest for the head of the USA to like NATO. If you know the head of the USA is incredibly shallow and you can achieve that support simply by sending an email/text message which requires zero dollars, and at best, a bit of political capital, then its a good deal for the NATO head to do that.

                  This is what is both fascinating and horrible about diplomacy and geopolitics. Its not about being "right" or "moral" in the moment. Its about getting what you want hopefully in service of the overall goal of of your interests. Sometimes that overall goal is "right" and "moral" in the case of NATO usually.

                      I love how it goes completely over Trump's orange, balding head, that NATO leadership talks to him as if he was a child

                              This is why Mark Rutte is the right man for the job. He knows exactly what to say to get the American president on board. He is a master at his craft.

                                Anyone have any better ideas on how to handle the sundowner with a massive ego? Rutte is a smart guy playing the game, as is his job.

                                Trump, not so much, which is why he posted being praised like a 6 year old using the potty proudly.

                                    Au contraire. Rutte is clearly trying to get a very yuuuge toddler to not shit his diaper without the usual angry toddler screaming.
                                    “Such a good boy Donald, we are so proud of you, yes yes what a good boy”
