Germany says it will hit the NATO defense spending target of 2% of GDP in 2024 for the first time in many years. But critics say it’s not enough – and there is no long-term plan. There are also calls for European countries to coordinate their own nuclear defences using French and UK nuclear weapons – after Donald Trump’s warnings that he might not defend a low-spending ally from Russian attack.
