NATO finally raised the bar! At a historic summit in The Hague, member countries agreed to boost defense spending from the current 2% to a whopping 5% of GDP over the next ten years! Yes, you read that right – nearly double! Montenegro’s President Jakov Milatović and his delegation proudly hailed this as a powerful message of unity within the alliance, while US President Donald Trump took center stage as the main advocate of this move. But wait, it’s not just about military gear – 1.5% of that 5% will be invested in infrastructure, cyber security, and other critical security areas. As Europe grapples with rising threats, Trump and NATO are sending a clear message: either we seriously arm ourselves or… well, better not think about the alternative! Now the question is – will all members actually meet these ambitious targets or is this just another empty NATO promise? Come on, comment below – is this the ultimate answer to global threats or just another bunch of political buzzwords?
