💬 In an interview with the BBC, Trump explained that NATO’s structure has changed significantly — member countries have begun to finance their own defense independently.
📈 He called the decision by Alliance leaders to increase defense spending to 5% of GDP “amazing,” adding, “no one thought it was possible.”
🤝 The President also emphasized the importance of the principle of collective security, which allows smaller countries to defend themselves against larger ones.
🇫🇷🇩🇪🇪🇸 According to him, the leaders of France, Germany, and Spain have started to respect his decisions, particularly because “being elected president twice is a great talent.”
😊 When asked whether world leaders sometimes openly flattered him, Trump replied that he believes they are “just trying to be polite.”
