Despite his reservations, he noted that he would support the majority decision for the strike while hoping to delay its implementation. The chat also featured members echoing frustrations over European defense spending, suggesting the U.S. should secure economic gains in return for military interventions.

Amid growing scrutiny and calls for investigations, both Trump and his top aides have distanced themselves from the incident, insisting no sensitive information was disclosed.
As officials grapple with the fallout from this embarrassing revelation, the leak has ignited renewed debates over transparency and accountability in national security communications.
