Biden does not support his candidacy for NATO Secretary General! The "closest ally" angrily supports the United States, allies, news, Secretary General, reports, Wallace, and the United Kingdom
According to a report on the website of the Daily Telegraph on June 22, government sources said that US President Biden's obstruction of British Defense Secretary Ben Wallace's campaign to become NATO Secretary General has made Britain "unhappy".
According to reports, many member states are optimistic that this Defense Minister will replace the current Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg later this year. But on the 21st, Wallace stated that his ambition to take over this position, which he had publicly expressed multiple times, will now "not be realized".

According to reports, Wallace's allies said in an interview with The Daily Telegraph that they believe his ambitions have been thwarted after the US President refused to support him as the next Secretary General of NATO.
Government sources say that people are now concerned that this situation may harm the special relationship between the UK and the US.
According to the report, a government source said, "We should be their closest ally, and this is the result we have achieved."
"That's how things are... but it's not good for Anglo American relations."

"Their preference for Danish women makes Britain unhappy."
The Secretary General of NATO is responsible for presiding over meetings of NATO leaders, conducting diplomatic activities, and overseeing its military in Brussels.
According to reports, given that European leaders led by French President Macron are vigorously lobbying for the next Secretary General to come from EU countries, Wallace is facing a difficult struggle.
According to the Daily Telegraph, Biden's decision not to support Wallace's campaign was a fatal blow and led to the Defense Secretary's withdrawal from the campaign.
Senior officials in Whitehall are "very disappointed" with the US decision. They are concerned that the United States has neglected a British candidate, sending the wrong message to allies. This issue may also undermine Britain's support for the United States on other international issues.
