NATO Heeds Trump’s Call to Make Member Nations Pay Fair Share
by PENNY STARR 30 Jun 2017
Northern Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg said on Wednesday that NATO will increase spending to move toward the organization’s requirement that member nations pay 2 percent of their Gross Domestic Product (GDP) to support security and military operations.
The increase, according to Reuters, is “partly aimed at showing the United States they are committed to shouldering more costs.”
Thanks Trump!

NATO doesn't control defense spending. Its member states control it. A promise from the Secretary General of NATO is therefore meaningless.

He's reporting spending by NATO allies tardly. The article is just not worded specifically enough for dumbshits intent on trying to find something wrong with Trump winning. Again.

NATO allies boost defense spending in the wake of Trump criticism
By Michael Birnbaum and Thomas Gibbons-Neff June 28
BRUSSELS — NATO allies of the United States plan to boost their defense spending by 4.3 percent this year, Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg said Wednesday, a response in part to intense pressure from President Trump that the nations invest more in their militaries.
