Trump proposed to increase US defense spending by 5%

As noted in the document, a strong army allows Washington "to warn the war, maintain peace and, if necessary, deter aggression against US interests."

"To this end, my budget is requesting $ 750 billion for national defense - this is $ 34 billion, or 5% more than the figure adopted in 2019," the request says.

Earlier it was reported that Trump plans to raise fees for the deployment of US troops.
