NATO should not be celebrating a new arms race, the west won’t be safer for it: Marwan Bishara
Al Jazeera’s senior political analyst Marwan Bishara says NATO members are capitulating to US pressure—particularly from Donald Trump—by increasing defence spending despite already outspending Russia by a wide margin. He argues that Europe remains unnecessarily dependent on American protection and that Trump has used ultimatums to enforce his demands.
Bishara emphasizes that there’s no real need for more military spending, pointing to the US’s $1 trillion defense budget and calling for investment in health and education instead.
