NATO PICKS NETHERLANDS' MARK RUTTE AS NEXT BOSS

BRUSSELS, June 26 (Reuters) - NATO on Wednesday selected Dutch Prime Minister
Mark Rutte as NATO's next boss, as the war in Ukraine rages on its doorstep and
uncertainty hangs over the United States' future attitude to the transatlantic
alliance.
Rutte's appointment became a formality after his only rival for the post,
Romanian President Klaus Iohannis, announced last week that he had quit the
race, having failed to gain traction.

Rutte will take over on Oct. 1 from Jens Stoltenberg of Norway, who is stepping
down after a decade in the post.
Ambassadors from the alliance's 32 members took the decision at a meeting at
NATO headquarters in Brussels.
Rutte said he looked forward to taking up the job "with great vigour".
"The Alliance is and will remain the cornerstone of our collective security.
Leading this organisation is a responsibility I do not take lightly," he posted
on X.

After declaring his interest in the post last year, Rutte gained early support
from key members of the alliance including the United States, Britain, France
and Germany.

Others were more reticent, particularly Eastern European countries which argued
the post should go to someone from their region for the first time.
But they ultimately rowed in behind Rutte, a fierce critic of Russian President
Vladimir Putin and a staunch ally of Ukraine.

Stoltenberg said he warmly welcomed the selection of Rutte as his successor.
"Mark is a true transatlanticist, a strong leader, and a consensus-builder," he
said. "I know I am leaving NATO in good hands."
NATO takes decisions by consensus so Rutte, who is bowing out of Dutch politics
after nearly 14 years as prime minister, could only be confirmed once all 32
alliance members gave him their backing.

Rutte will face the challenge of sustaining allies' support for Ukraine's fight
against Russia's invasion while guarding against NATO's being drawn directly
into a war with Moscow.
He will also have to contend with the possibility that NATO-sceptic Donald Trump
may return to the White House after November's U.S. presidential election.
Trump's possible return has unnerved NATO leaders as the Republican former
president called into question U.S. willingness to support other members of the
alliance if they were attacked.
