US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth meets Baltic counterparts from Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania
U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth hosted a quadrilateral meeting with Baltic defense ministers in the Pentagon on July 25, stressing NATO’s military spending target of 5% GDP. European leaders say they are ready to step up on security, having pledged big increases in military spending at a NATO summit last week. The new NATO target includes a core component for defense spending, which must reach 3.5% of GDP by 2035, and a further element on broader security-related investments, worth 1.5%.
