Trudeau Called the Greatest Threat to NATO
The deputy chairman of the NATO Parliamentary Assembly’s Defense and Security Committee has chastised Prime Minister Justin Trudeau for his “arrogance” about defense spending. His policies jeopardize the alliance’s existence.
Trudeau’s policies are the freeloading policies of a failing NATO. “If everyone followed Trudeau’s policies, there would be no NATO,” he remarked.
This year, Canada is set to spend 1.37 percent of its GDP on defense, significantly lower than the two percent objective agreed upon by heads of government in 2014.
Members have decided that 2% should be the minimum as concerns rise about Russia’s ongoing assault on Ukraine.
Trudeau reiterated last week that his government is on a “concrete” track to meet the minimum aim by 2032.
“The world is getting more dangerous, more unstable, which is why we’ve committed to reaching the 2 percent, why we’ve almost doubled our investments in defense over the past years, and will continue to over the coming years,” Mr. Trump stated.
He stated that Canada intends to purchase submarines, increase its funding in NORAD, and improve partnerships.
Many Americans, particularly those who support President-elect Donald Trump, believe it is still too slow. Turner stated that if countries such as Canada do not step up, there will be consequences for those “who cheat.”
The Republican senator penned an op-ed in Newsweek describing Canada’s prime minister as the greatest threat.
In the op-ed, he stated that Trudeau’s leadership has been so arrogant that it believes it is beyond the need to recognize that authoritarianism is one of the most serious challenges to democracy.
The only way to preserve democracy is to have a robust defense. Trudeau’s policies have outsourced it.
They’ve freeloaded on American taxpayers. The alliance’s call, which Canada also agreed to, is for everyone to pay their fair share and get above 2%, which Justin Trudeau has failed to meet.
