So you agree that the 2% requirement was a voluntarily agreed upon common consensus by member states, including whoever your defense minister was at the time, got it.

Your PM/defense minister at the time voluntarily agreed to that threshold back in 2006 what are you even complaining about? You’re suggesting the United States coerced your leader to agree to spend more on its military? Sorry the United States has and will continue to be the world’s policeman for bums like you it’s certainly a thankless job.

You clearly have no idea what you’re talking about if the NATO consensus 2% GDP threshold requirement is a foreign concept to you. Tough look buddy

And now explain why major European member states of NATO still don’t meet the basic spending threshold to be part of the alliance. Oh because their defenses are subsidized by the US armed forces right.

And who is accountable for the left wing domestic terrorism in the US?

Regime-held territory (Aleppo Damascus, latakia) at least has functioning rule of law and governance. Can think of a half-dozen other countries not listed above to put above Syria (Libya, Niger, DRC, etc.)
