Trump Suggests Tossing Spain Out of NATO as a Bottom Spender

President Donald Trump suggested that Spain could potentially be removed from the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) due to its low defense spending. This statement comes as part of Trump's ongoing criticism of NATO members who fail to meet the alliance's target of spending 2% of their GDP on defense. Trump has been vocal about his desire for NATO members to increase their financial contributions, arguing that the United States bears a disproportionate burden. The potential exclusion of Spain from NATO, a founding member of the alliance, would be a significant move and would likely have far-reaching geopolitical implications. The article highlights the ongoing tension between the United States and its NATO allies over defense spending, as Trump continues to push for greater financial commitments from member countries.
