US signal NATO they mean business
Those NATO allies who brushed off the request of the US government to pay as agreed for common defence, might have been too superficial in their judgement. The U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson plans to skip a meeting with NATO foreign ministers next month in order to stay home for a visit of China’s…
Europe’s poor output in defence
“No matter of how much of the GDP a Member State of the European Union or a NATO ally spends on defence, invests on defence, there is one number – actually two numbers – that tell us a lot. Europeans invest 50% compared to the Americans on defence. The output of this investment in Europe…
