THE HAGUE (WAM)
NATO leaders, concluding a brief summit in the Netherlands on Wednesday, endorsed the significant increase in defence spending long advocated by US President Donald Trump.
They reaffirmed their unwavering commitment to collective defence, a principle Trump had seemingly wavered on earlier in the week, much to the relief of his allies.
Allies committed to investing five percent of GDP annually on core defence requirements as well as defence-and security-related spending by 2035.
