A leaked Pentagon email reveals that the US is considering punitive measures against NATO allies, particularly Spain and the UK, for their refusal to support American-led military action against Iran.
Options reportedly include suspending Spain from NATO and reviewing US support for Britain's claim to the Falkland Islands. The Trump administration has also created a 'naughty and nice' list to rank NATO members based on their cooperation.

The controversy has exposed deep divisions within NATO and raised concerns about alliance unity and US leadership.
