Although Trump has appealed for NATO members to spend their budget on protection, the likelihood of any new EU increases is uncertain.
In 2022, the invasion of Ukraine by Russia and the incompetence of the Donald Trump Atlantic Alliance, the EU was forced to reconsider the approach of security and military spending.
The United States is the most spending NATO member, with about 895.6 billion in its security budget for 2024.
Last year, European security costs increased 11.7% in real way, reaching about 423.3 billion ($ 457 billion), which refers to the tenth year.
Between 2014 and 2024, regional expenses in Europe were more than 50%worldwide.
The world’s fourth largest security budget is in Germany, which recorded an increase of 23.2% of the actual regulations between 2023 and 2024.
Most recently, the country approved the bill to allow a major increase in military expenditure.
Polish became the tenth fifth largest security cost worldwide, which ranked 20th in 2022.
The security costs of 23 EU countries, which are NATO members, are expected to climb 2% of their integrated GDP by 2024 and reach 2.04% by 2025.
Trump’s re -election puts pressure NATO to increase their security costs.
The US President wants all NATO countries to increase the cost of 5% of their GDP.
The idea was supported by EU foreign business leader Gaja Kallas in January.
French President Emmanuel Macron said his goal is to increase security costs to 3.5% of the country’s GDP, and that an increase in an additional 30 billion annually.
If NATO European members have a 2024 growth rate, security costs will be 3% of GDP in five years and 5% of the tenth of five years.
However, maintaining a high growth rate of 2024 is impossible for most countries.
For example, Spain refused to give to Trump’s request.
The Spanish government wants to raise the military spending by 2029, which has more than twice the more than twice the 17.523 million euros invested in security by 2024, with the aim of reaching 36.560 million in five years.
“To increase security capabilities at acceptable cost, Europe must collect acquisitions in a common fund,” said Brougin’s director Jeromin Gerdelmeer.
