Former U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken:
For every dollar that we put into Ukraine, Europeans and others put in a dollar and a half.
So the notion that they were free-riding on Ukraine is simply not true.
And much of the money that we spent on Ukraine was actually spent here in the United States to either buy weapon systems for them or to replenish the systems that we gave them.
@FoxNews This is nonsense. That $22 trillion extra was spent on US global wars and bases, not on NATO.
NATO is a regional defence alliance. There is no reason European NATO members should be funding US bases in Okinawa or Qatar.

Yesilgöz zegt net dat Hamas de dienst uitmaakt in Palestina. Onzin: die terreurorganisatie heeft enkel controle over Gaza (ongeveer 370km2). Palestijnse Autoriteiten (niet Hamas) over 6000km2. Ergo: Hamas controleert ongeveer 5-6% van de Palestijnse gebieden.
Mark Kelly on Trump’s Crash: "This is not surprising. Here's a guy who told Americans to inject bleach into their bodies, who sent a mob to Capitol Hill. And now I think it's fair to say he stands out as singlehandedly destroying more wealth than anybody else who has ever lived on this planet.''
After 9/11, NATO's Article 5 was invoked for the first (and only) time ever by the United States.
Troops from the UK, Canada, Germany, France, Italy, the Netherlands, Denmark, Australia, Spain, Poland, Norway, Romania, Turkey, New Zealand, Estonia, Lithuania, Latvia, Ukraine, Finland, and many others joined the fight in Afghanistan.
More than one thousand of these soldiers paid the ultimate price.
