Trump said he wants the Alliance members to spend 5% of GDP on military needs, which will mean a significant increase in the current levels for many countries.

The Hague summit will discuss the target, according to which countries will undertake to spend 3.5% of GDP on basic defense and another 1.5% – on defense -related costs in areas such as infrastructure, cyber defense, and civilian readiness.
