Summarization

Only seven out of 30 nations in NATO are meeting the alliance's target of spending 2% of their GDP on their militaries by 2024, despite Western arms pouring into Ukraine. European leaders are heading to Beijing, even as the US beckons. President Macron and President of EU Commission von Der Leyen plan to visit Beijing, raising concerns of "peace-washing." While defense spending across NATO increased by 2.2%, there are still concerns about meeting the 2% target by 2024. Some commenters support Trump's stance on NATO's need to pay up, while others feel a focus on arms is wasteful. Some criticize Macron as irrelevant, while others blame Americans for preferring isolation.

1641332006033268737 @takingaction4us @StevenErlanger @oertel_janka Is it “delusional” or has the outright economic offense that is the IRA shaken European capitals and reconfirmed the need to create a multipolar world, so as to play those poles against each other? 1
