The head of Nato, Mark Rutte, tells @cathynewman that he is 'really happy' more countries have agreed to increase defence spending to 5% of their GDP, insisting it was essential to counter the 'Russian threat', and not because President Trump has demanded it.
Waypoint retweeted
Germany plans to reach the NATO 3.5% defence spending target as soon as 2029, under figures briefed by officials earlier. Spending will reach 2.4% this year and ratchet steadily up.
Enabled by Germany's low debt stock and the loosening of the debt brake. Not so easy for others.

Russia refused Ukraine’s offer of total or air ceasefire. Trump refused Ukraine’s request for air defenses and declined to sanction Russia for murderous missile attacks on Ukrainian cities. Ukraine took out the planes used for these missile attacks. Simple.
