Denmark is ready to increase military and national security spending, Prime Minister Lars Lokke Rasmussen said on Wednesday after a phone conversation with U.S. President-elect Donald Trump.
Trump criticised NATO allies during campaigning for the White House, saying they did not pay enough for their own defence and suggested the United States was paying a disproportionate amount.
Denmark spends about 1.2 percent of GDP on defence. NATO has set its members a target of spending 2 percent of GDP on defence.
"The government is setting the stage for increasing spending on military and national security," Rasmussen said in a statement after the phone call.

Trump won the election only 8 days ago and he has already been changing the world.

I have to admit. I am still grinning from election day and I feel great after 8 years of a daily nightmare.

That is amazing. Already acting the statesman, and he is still two months out from being inaugurated.
Thank God for Trump!

Trump won the election only 8 days ago and he has already been changing the world. Interesting comparison to Obama, who won a Nobel Prize just for being black and existing.
