Biggest NATO allies in Europe will swiftly implement new targets, Berlin says

^{Published on 2025-01-13 14:00:53 - MSN}

Germany, Poland, Britain, France and Italy will implement NATO's new targets for weapons and troop numbers, to be agreed in the summer, as swiftly as possible, German Defence Minister Pistorius pledged on Monday.

The article discusses Germany's commitment to swiftly implement new defense spending targets set by NATO. Following a meeting in Brussels, German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius emphasized that Germany, along with other major European NATO allies, will work towards meeting the alliance's goal of spending at least 2% of GDP on defense. This push comes in response to heightened security concerns due to Russia's actions in Ukraine. Pistorius highlighted the need for a stronger European defense posture, noting that while Germany has been increasing its defense budget, more needs to be done to meet the NATO targets. The urgency of these commitments was underscored by the ongoing geopolitical tensions and the necessity for NATO to demonstrate unity and strength.
