I will focus on what we have agreed, and we have agreed to be committed to the pledge, increasing defence spending to 2%. And let's start with that. So, we have a way to go, but the good news is that we have really started to deliver. I think that, if we go back to 2014, and ask the leaders, commentators, whether European Allies would make that much progress we have seen from 2014 up to today, I think many people would have doubted that. But the reality is that now, all Allies have started to increase, all Allies have stopped the cuts, all Allies have started to increase, more Allies spend 2% of GDP on defence, and last year we saw the biggest increase ever. On top of that, on the initiative of President Trump last May, last year, we agreed to develop the national plans as a very powerful tool, to make sure that Allies deliver on the promise to increase defence spending. And the national plans have proven to be exactly the strong and powerful tools we expected them to be, because they… the majority of Allies have already presented plans, showing how they will, step by step, move to reach the 2% goal.
So, we are delivering. There are differences, there are discussions, there are disagreements, but NATO has made decisions and we are delivering on the defence pledge. And for me, in the long run, substance is what counts. And on substance, NATO is delivering.
