I fear that the push for increasing defense spending in Europe was in preparation for a new NATO alliance case. They are certainly going to try it.

Why fear a hypothetical conspiracy? When there's enough reason to increase budgets because of a multi year war that's being fought right at our borders by a mad man, who has shown his willingness to attack and who enjoys the sympathy of the administration that was responsible for 62% of Nato's spending?

Hello?

Hi! I meant specifically the us admin pushing for more defense spending in Europe. There was so much emphasis laid on this, while saying they don't want to wage more wars. But now they are going all in, so that part was a lie.

Unrelated to that some increase in spending was due, I agree with that. All I'm saying is that I don't trust the US admin.
