Talk about kissing ass. Canada, and I suspect other countries as well, have already been finding lopeholes to reach Trump's 5% target without additional spending. I suspect a few countries in NATO will truly raise their military spending to 5% of GDP, but other countries are going to bend the rules.

This is Mark Rutte at his best. He has been the Prime Minister in the Netherlands for years and there the same behaviour, and if you distance yourself from him or go against him, he hugs you even harder.

Btw, he and Israel seem to understand very well that Trump's ego needs to be stroked with superlatives to get something done with him.

You should connect with arashtehran, who said: '“The dilemma regarding Washington is linked to its extreme complacency, to say the least, toward Russia. The erratic behavior of Donald Trump, of which the latest G7 summit provided yet another illustration, can only deeply disrupt the world’s main democratic alliance.” Join the conversation in the /politics channel.
