Prime Minister Mark Carney says Canada and its NATO allies have agreed to substantially hike their defence spending target to five per cent of annual GDP by 2035.
Why would he push NATO countries to increase their defense spending target by 150% if he was planning on actually invading?
Trump isn’t planning to invade NATO (except maybe Greenland.) he’s planning to leave NATO. NATO exists to protect the Western world, and its highly interconnected economies. it’s a globalist project, and the US’s role as de-facto leader of NATO gave us the ability to project tremendous soft military power, the same way the dollar lets us project soft economic power.
MAGA are isolationists. NATO protects “the West,” but Trump doesn’t care about the West, only America. so what if Putin carves up Europe? has Europe even said “thank you?” they’re screwing us over, just look at the trade deficit! that’s the logic.
The US isn’t leaving NATO. The US just got everything it wanted from NATO, and they still hold massive sway over the alliance. This was just another threat to put fear into the public and the leaders of NATO states so they would pay more money. That’s Trump’s main focus. He wants other people to pay for what suits the US instead of the US doing so.
