President Donald Trump met with Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelenskyy on the sidelines of the NATO summit Wednesday and suggested that increased spending by the trans-Atlantic alliance could help prevent future Russian aggression against its neighbors.
NATO members agreed to raise their spending targets by 2035 to 5% of gross domestic product annually on core defense requirements as well as defense-and security-related spending. That target had been 2% of GDP.
“Europe stepping up to take more responsibility for security will help prevent future disasters like the horrible situation with Russia and Ukraine,” Trump said at the summit-ending news conference shortly after seeing Zelenskyy. “And hopefully we’re going to get that solved.”
Just gotta give kudos to all the media photographers who are taking pics of Trump when he’s got some seriously stupid facial expressions. If nothing else it makes me smile at the dumb chucklefuck.
I’d say it’s harder to take a pic of him without a stupid expression.
Oh that IS a good one lol
Mmmm … Trump destabilizes the world which necessitates more spending. Make it make sense.
He makes money from that instability ? That work ?
Historically, additional military spending has always correlated with less aggressive behaviour right? Right guys? Ṟ̸̡͝ì̶̪ğ̴͙̩h̷̺̣͑t̴̢̪̊? Ŕ̷̢̩̤̲̥̳͙̠̫̼̟̯͎́̈͒͛͌͒̍̋͋͝͠͝ͅi̵̢̛͖̘̪̠̝̘͑̽̿́͗͊̾͊̚͘̕͜͝ğ̷̳̤̤͚̼͙̞̥̄̑͘̚͜͝h̵̤͑̒̓̓̃͂̂̾͆̏̚͘̚͝ṭ̵͍̮͚͈͖͖̫̙͎͑͌̔̆̈́͗̑̔́̑̊̏͘͜͠͝?̶̙͎͇͒̄̄͐̎̀̓́̇̽͐̆͒̑̊̍??
