>The two percent of GNP defense spending figure is a goal agreed to by NATO members. It is not part of the treaty and is not a binding requirement on NATO members. Article V, on the other hand, is. If any country does not think it can abide by Article V then then should withdraw from NATO.

Then lets withdraw. If Nato won’t meet it’s fiscal obligations they can enjoy Russian domination. I frankly don’t give 2 rats asses about nations who can’t be bothered to defense themselves.

Being soft on these nations has made them soft. Time to be tough again.

And yet at the same time Trump is talking about getting NATO help in U.S. involvement in Syria against ISIS. Can't have both.
