NATO: Trump's statements hang over the meeting of NATO defense ministers. Ukraine should again be the main point on the agenda of defense ministers this Thursday.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky announced his upcoming visits to Berlin and Paris on Friday. The cessation of American aid is already having an “impact” on the battlefield, NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg warned this Thursday morning. It was the 2014 commitments to spend 2% of gross domestic product on defense and then the war in Ukraine that caused military spending to skyrocket.
