Shadow foreign secretary David Lammy said European members of Nato should 'heed the signal' from the Republican presidential candidate that they needed to share more of the financial burden to deter hostile states like Russia
Shadow foreign secretary David Lammy said European members of Nato should 'heed the signal' from the Republican presidential candidate that they needed to share more of the financial burden to deter hostile states like Russia
Mr Trump provoked anger earlier this year when he claimed he would encourage Russia to “do whatever the hell they want” to any Nato country that did not meet the alliance’s spending target of 2 per cent – which would include 13 members., Mr Lammy suggested he agreed with successive US presidents, including Trump, who have called for European countries to “spend more on their own security”.
“Every US President of my lifetime has made the argument that Europeans must spend more on their own security… The shadow foreign secretary also pointed out that former president Barack Obama’s defence secretary Chuck Hagel had said a decade ago that spending by European Nato members on defence was “not sustainable” and “rebalancing NATO’s burden-sharing and capabilities is mandatory – not elective.”
