Trump: ‘NATO countries should spend not 2 but 5 percent of their GDP on defense’

President-elect Donald Trump is currently giving his second press conference since winning the United States elections in November. From his home Mar-a-Lago in Florida, he does not shy away from bold statements. For example, he states that he will withdraw the ban on oil and gas drilling off the American coast announced by outgoing President Joe Biden as soon as he takes over the presidency. He also believes that the contribution of member states to NATO should be increased from 2 to 5 percent of their gross domestic product (GDP).
