That IS a damning graph.
As I said in a post above.
NATO allies need to start paying their fair share.
Perhaps Trump’s comments can put a fire under their feet.
As Norwegian I am surprised as a country bordering Russia and running large budget surpluses do not even meet the 2 percent mark.
It is not the quality of a great ally :/
Trump knows that the carrot isn’t working and it is time for the stick.
Back in the Cold War days, these countries agreed to 3% and most of them never met that either. All these countries have been free riding on this alliance for so long that it has become an entitlement like welfare.
Time for “alliance reform”.
