AllSides Media Bias Rating: Center
All NATO allies are now estimated to be meeting the target of investing at least 2 percent of GDP in defense, according to the latest data published by the alliance.
Why It Matters
The increase marks a big win for U.S. President Donald Trump, who across his two terms in office has pushed hard for NATO members to meet their obligations on defense spending, and now wants them to go further, targeting 5 percent instead.
What To Know
Many NATO countries have boosted their military spending in the years since President Vladimir Putin invaded Ukraine in 2022, and follows increased U.S. pressure on its allies to shoulder more of the financial burden.
