- Rishi Sunak has told European countries they will have to boost defence spending to keep the US “committed” to Nato in the future.
The Prime Minister said the continent must take on more responsibility for its defence against the backdrop of Donald Trump making a second run for the White House.
In February the former US president claimed he would let Russia do “whatever the hell they want” to Nato members who fail to hit the Alliance’s spending target of two per cent of GDP.
Speaking in Berlin alongside Olaf Scholz, the German Chancellor, Mr Sunak said US presidents had always made the “reasonable” demand for Europe to spend more.
He said that European nations can no longer ask the US to bankroll the continent’s security if they are not “prepared to make sacrifices” themselves.
The Prime Minister said it was “important” that Europe showed it was taking on a greater share of the burden “to keep the US committed to Nato”.

Once Europe steps up, America can bolt

We in America are not bolting. Trump will not be president.
La mulți ani în treaga europena de 9 mai .🎉🎉🎉
😢Stop all the WARS: humans need to help each other 😂😂
Any good relationship is built on purposeful and balanced burden sharing. Whether it’s a marriage or an international defense framework… this is an obvious and critical step for defending democracy across the globe.
Europe should send more military aid to Ukraine
07:00 - No, the USA is by far the largest provider of aid to Ukraine.
Yeah, i think he meant in europe, and forgot to add it. 😅

Украина вперёд
Don't brag about the money... Gib hardware, Germany...
Didn't Donald Trump was saying that 7 years ago ?!
Media called him Dictator, rude etc.
Didn't Donald Trump worned Europe 5 years ago at United Nations speech against Russia dominance in Europe. They were laughing at him !!!
Very interesting n solid arguments from the UK prime minister to push forward for the EU security at a very critical moment in modern history . With all my regards.
We can't hear the English translation when Olaf is speaking, Terrible !!! Fix it
The Mafia is in power.
🎉🎉ye I think.
Allies
Top man
He has a plan AND it is WORKING
More or say smart?
👍👍👉🇬🇧🇩🇪🇪🇺🫂🌍
Exactly what Donald Trump said !... It's not rocket science... Well maybe it can be 🚀🚀🚀
Really spice girl
WHAT?! why is a british PM talking about things concerning *EUROPE* ??? they showed us all the split middle finger on Brexit & now still want to act like they have a voice here?! what the?!
Because they're still part of Europe the continent? If the improbable scenario happened and Russia went as crazy as to fire missiles at Europe (and they aren't known for their precision), those missiles wouldn't stop over the English Channel and say "oh wait, let's fall into the sea now, better not hit London, Britain isn't in the EU".
EU and Europe are not synonyms. Norway is also not an EU member, but it is a part of europe nonetheless, as well as switzerland and many other nations. Also Sunak and Scholz spoke as heads of NATO member governments.
KUWAIT CITY X NAFO
Translation …
How many cities will be wiped out in the next war between major nations?
If only Ukraine stayed neutral…
Every country has the right to do what it wants. Ulraine not staying neutral does not give Russia/ Putin the right to invade its sovereign neighbour!
Putin is a terrorist and war monger. Its time we sorted him out and Iran. Give Ukraine everything they need to push him out of Ukraine. Maybe then the Russian people will wake up and get rid of him.
@@tomislavgovic4445 Every country has the right to do what it wants.. but apparently not Russia or Israel
3 states in 1 State . The 3:1 Christian-Judaism -Arabian States of Iarael . Freedom of Religion and movement . At least that's what I hope for. Or to the Descendants of Jacob IF any Alive
Go Russia 🇷🇺
Go help em at the front then big man
Back to Russia.
It's kind of funny. NATO's expansionism caused the current conflict in Ukraine, yet Europe is being asked to put more money into defence which means buying more military gear from the USA who lead the NATO expansionist policy. It's essentially a policy to enrich US arms manufacturers.
It is Russias expansionism that has caused the occupation of part of Ukraine. Russia was a Nato allied in Partnership for peace before Putin start trying realize his dream to be a new Hitler/Stalin.
@@tremula1Ha ha ha!!!🐑🐑🐑 beeee beeee!!!😅😂
Putin himself said in the Tucker Carlson interview this war was started to re-create the Russian empire. Didn't mention NATO at all.
Putin is a terrorist and had no right to attack Ukraine. He thought it would be all over in a week well he has had a rude awakening. Now the allies need to give Ukraine all they need to drive the savage terrorist out of Ukraine.
It s not funny at all when it comes to the survival of our democracy not only in Europe but also across the world.
Giv them ur own money, thief
Ova dva lika se ne pitaju ništa!!! Amerikanci su okupirali Evropu a oni samo izvršavaju naređenja!!!😅😂
The eyes never lie this soulless fool will find his reward in hades soon and his bonus will be an eternity!
