NATO has released its latest estimates showing which nations meet the 2% of GDP guideline spend on defence.
The number of NATO nations meeting or exceeding the alliance's target of spending 2% of their gross domestic product (GDP) on defence has decreased, according to the latest official estimates.
NATO's Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg has called on defence spending to increase within the alliance.
It should be noted that only 10 NATO countries have complied with this requirement, among them all three Baltic States. Estonia (2.28%), Latvia (2.27%), Lithuania (2.03%) are meeting NATO's proportional target of 2%.
