"Shapps (UK Defense Minister): Nato states playing ‘Russian roulette’ with lack of defense spending"

From The Telegraph ^ | 4/3/24 | Ben-Riley Smith | the tip from Freeper.

"Nato countries that do not spend two per cent of GDP on defense spending are playing 'Russian roulette' with the West’s future, Grant Shapps has warned."

"In an article for The Telegraph to mark the military alliance’s 75th anniversary, the Defense Secretary argued that allies must accept we are now in 'a pre-war world';”. Last year, just 11 Nato members met its two per cent target, first set almost two decades ago, with France and Germany among the nations that spent less on defense."

FRANCE AND GERMANY BOTH CONTINUE TO SPEND LESS THAN THE AGREED UPON 2 % OF GDP [GROSS DOMESTIC PRODUCT] AS DEEMED NECESSARY FOR NATO DEFENSE! PITIFUL AND DOWNRIGHT OUTRAGEOUS!

The Lithuanians want increased spending. The Poles want increased spending. President Trump wanted increased spending. Suddenly EVERYONE wants increased spending.
