President Donald Trump stated his stance on backing NATO allies depends on the circumstance and deferred comment on alleged drone incursions in Denmark, saying "I have no response until I find out exactly what happened," during remarks made between 5:37 PM and 6:07 PM UTC on September 23rd, 2025.

The U.S. Secret Service had discovered 100,000 SIM cards and 300 servers in New York capable of crashing cell networks prior to President Trump's UN address.
