NATO commits to spending hike sought by Trump and to mutual defense

2 days ago | ksl.com | Andrew Gray |Sabine Siebold |Jeff Mason

THE HAGUE — NATO leaders on Wednesday backed the big increase in defence spending that U.S. President Donald Trump had demanded, and restated their commitment to defend each other from attack after a brief summit in the Netherlands. While Trump got what he wanted at the annual meeting, tailor-made for him, his NATO allies will be relieved that he committed to the fundamental principle of collective defence after less clear-cut language on Tuesday.

Officials organising a Nato summit in The Hague this month are expected to keep it short, restrict discussion of Ukraine and choreograph meetings so that Volodymyr Zelenskyy can somehow be in town without provoking Donald Trump. Though the Ukrainian president is widely expected to attend the summit in some form, Nato has yet to confirm whether he is actually invited. Diplomats say he may attend a pre-summit dinner but be kept away from the main summit meeting.

Brussels — US defence secretary Pete Hegseth said on Thursday he was confident that Nato members would sign up to US President Donald Trump’s demand for a major boost in defence spending, adding that it had to happen by a summit later in June.
