Sorry about your bugs.No.What did you not understand from the words I said to you? Forget the 2%...Fake News:As far as know it gave an agreement with Barack Obama about 1.5% up to the year 2024 (and not 2% now immediatelly, how everyone says today). And Germany was on good way to fulfill this agreement...The commitment to NATO is not to pay them money, rather, to maintain deployable forces for the common defense and to keep military spending at or above 2% of GDP. And you are NOT meeting either commitment.... Germany needs to honor their commitment to NATO and quit reeloading off the alliance.
We pay the same money to the institution "NATO" as the USA is doing.
You have never met the 2% commitment and 2010 to 2016 you went the wrong direction, you were not steadily improving as you claimed. Now since Trump has been dropping truth bombs on you, we are seeing improvement. In the most recent year, which is not on this chart, you are at 1.38%, which is still short but, pretty close to your best year ever. Keep it up! Soon you can hold your head up proudly knowing that you are pulling your own weight!
Germany - Military Expenditure (% Of GDP) - 2024 Data 2025 Forecast 1960-2022 Historical

While it might seem painful, he is actually showing you the respect your deserve.Donald Trump - this bloody damned liar and asshole - changed meanwhile everything in the relations between Germany and the USA. Indeed the USA declared meanwhile in many ways war against Germany...
And yet, 7 nations continue to meet their mutual defense commitments:... Additionally came the pandemic Corona which binds a lot of economic capacities and possibilites...
Poland, Latvia, Romania, United Kingdom, Estonia, Greece, United States.
It is long past time for Germany to proudly join this group.
Of course. If Gerrmany wants the benefits of a Mutual Defense Treaty, then Germany needs to meet it's own commitments to the Self Defense Treaty. Of course you have complete freedom in this matter, you have for a long time. This is known.... is exclusively only a decision of the German Bundestag - of our parliament - and not the decision of any single political party in Germany - nor is it the decision of an extremist idiot and autocrat, who overtook with his loyal spitlickers the white house of the USA...
7 other nations, all impacted by Corona, maintained their 2% commitment.... this will not happen because of Corona...
Totally superflous waste of money in times of ABC+D weapons.
Meaningless drivel. If you want the mutual defense guarantee, meet your commitment.... because of the war on world economy of the USA...
Open your ears and listen! I do not like to see any US-American soldier in Germany any longer!!!
By the way: Did you kow what had happened with the insects in Germany between 1989 and 2016? The biomass of the insects lost 76% during this years. This seems to be worldwide the same. That's a real problem - and not a pseudo-problem of US-American weapon producers and weapon dealers how to make more money by helping to reduce the biomass of human beings more efficient.
You don't see the dimension of the problem. This happens all over the planet and is perhaps a deadly problem for the whole biosphere and for all human beings. And nearly no one has reliable information about. And for sure no one discusses such problems with sissie Donald Trump, the greatest windbag since the invention of the windbag.
