Has Donald Trump changed NATO and European defence forever? | BBC Newscast


Today, world leaders have agreed to increase defence spending to 5% at a Nato summit at The Hague.

Member states will commit 3.5% of GDP on core defence expenditure by 2035, plus up to 1.5% on a security investments.

President Trump hailed the outcome as a “big win” and said he no longer thought Nato was a "rip-off".

Adam Flemming is joined by BBC diplomatic correspondent James Landale and former British Ambassador to the United States, Lord Kim Darroch. Also at the summit is Chris, who’s been traveling with the Prime Minister. Starmer is facing a backbench rebellion over changes to the welfare system.
