  • Europe's security "is on a knife-edge" and President-elect Donald Trump is right to say NATO member nations must increase military spending, Britain's top diplomat said Thursday.

The article from MSN discusses comments made by UK Foreign Secretary David Cameron, who supports former U.S. President Donald Trump's urging for NATO allies to increase their military spending. Cameron emphasized the importance of NATO members meeting the commitment to spend at least 2% of their GDP on defense, a target set by the alliance. He highlighted that this increase in defense spending is crucial for maintaining security, especially in light of ongoing global threats. Cameron's remarks come at a time when there is considerable debate about the future of NATO and the financial contributions of its members, particularly in the context of potential changes in U.S. leadership and policy. He also mentioned that the UK is on track to meet this target, reinforcing the need for collective defense efforts within the alliance.
