💨 Abstract

NATO's European members and Canada increased defense spending by 20% in 2024, amounting to over $485 billion, as per NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte. The rise is due to pressure from U.S. President Trump and the aftermath of Russia's 2022 invasion of Ukraine. These figures will be further discussed at the upcoming NATO defense ministers meeting.
