A US official expressed concern that allies' failure to meet NATO spending targets jeopardizes predictable access for American troops.
“These allies, they put America’s sons and daughters, our sons and daughters, at risk by denying them the predictable access, basing and overflight that never should have been in question at all,” he said.
Hegseth said Washington paying its dues to cover Nato organisational running costs – roughly some US$790 million in 2026 – would be “contingent” on allies reaching spending targets.
“Where other allies do not spend with urgency, our dues contributions will go down,” he said.
