The US has called on NATO countries to increase their defense contribution to 2% of GDP

Contributions for the defense needs of a member country of the bloc must be at least 2% of its GDP, the White House said.

The United States expects NATO countries to increase their defense contributions ahead of the summit in Washington. This is what White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said in a briefing on March 13.

He said at the Vilnius summit last summer, NATO members agreed that spending more than 2% of GDP would be needed to address shortcomings and respond to changing security dynamics.

This year, for the first time since the alliance was created, NATO’s 19 members plan to spend 2% of their GDP on defense, a six-fold increase since 2014.

“We expect this number to increase before the Washington summit. And if you combine the combined GDP of the European NATO allies, they will spend 2% of their combined GDP on defense. This is an important milestone and a clear demonstration that Allies recognize the need to invest more in security after the Russian Federation’s renewed aggression in Ukraine,” said Jean-Pierre.

Let’s remember that former US President Donald Trump said that during his leadership in the United States he threatened the leaders of NATO countries that he would “encourage Russia to do whatever it wants” with states that owe Alliance.
