The exchange came after NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte praised Trump as a "man of strength" and a "man of peace" during Wednesday's summit.
"I just want to recognize your decisive action on Iran," Rutte said at the start of his joint remarks with the president. "You are a man of strength, but you are also a man of peace.
