NATO chief credits Trump for record number of members meeting spending targets
Fox News
NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg touted a record number of member states meeting their funding requirements, crediting both the war in Ukraine and former President Trump.
"I worked with [Trump] over those four years. And the reality is that he had a very clear message on the need for European allies to spend more. And I agree with him," Stoltenberg said.

"The good news is that, over the last year or so, we have seen a significant increase in spending by European allies. We still have a way to go, but, again, compared to where we started, we are in a much better place. I expect those allies that are not yet at 2% to be there within a few years."
