German Defense Minister Ursula von der Leyen on Sunday rejected U.S.
President Donald Trump's claim that Germany owes NATO and the United States
"vast sums" of money for defense.
"There is no debt account at NATO," von der Leyen said in a statement,
adding that it was wrong to link the alliance's target for members to spend
2 percent of their economic output on defense by 2024 solely to NATO.
"Defense spending also goes into UN peacekeeping missions, into our European
missions and into our contribution to the fight against IS terrorism," von
der Leyen said. | P****R 发帖数: 22479 | |
