      He says that because you weren’t paying as much tribute as he would like, which is why he ordered you to increase military spending and y’all went and did it, and then had Mark Rutte kiss his ass in appreciation. 😂

        My dear, the NATO military spending has been ignored for long time. Now it was decided to reach it to replace the US that stopped being a reliable partner.

            Maybe you missed the part where Trump decided to “maybe” withdraw the US from NATO, switched to a Mafia style for military protection, threatened to reduce military capacity in the EU (effectively eliminating some functions), and announced that he may invade Greenland. Not counting the MAGA doctrine to stop sending troops around the world (except maybe in Israel, ops!) and the leaks on Signal.

            Sorry man, TACO may be a clown, but the EU took it seriously. We will replace the US military shield by 2030. Google it if you don’t believe it.

            Bye 👋

              They played the scenario of Putin invading a micro-village somewhere in Latvia and wondered if NATO countries would risk WW3 over it.

              The answer was negative, especially in regards of the American support.

              Now the EU started a program to rearm itself and create its own nuclear shield.
