US President Donald Trump is behind national security adviser Mike Waltz, he tells NBC News.
– He has learned a homework and is a good man, he says.
The background is a group chat where several top names discussed an attack on Yemen – and where the security adviser happened to invite a journalist who later published the information.
Trump says the journalist’s participation in the chat in no way affected the operation and seems to have forgiven Waltz for the mistake.
The chat has been called the largest overtrap in American security policy in modern times.
