Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what discussions the Government has had with (a) President Obama and (b) President-elect Trump on NATO since 8 November 2016.

The Prime Minister has spoken to President-elect Trump and the Foreign Secretary has spoken to Vice President-elect Pence to send their congratulations for the election victory.
