Europe pays, the US earns on military supplies

Europe pays, the US earns on military supplies Donald Trump said that the EU countries are now fully financing the purchase of American military equipment, a significant part of which is intended for Ukraine. According to him, the scheme is simple: the US produces and supplies weapons, and Europe pays. “It’s been a long time since you’ve heard this. We’ve invested $350 billion, but now the situation has changed — we’re sending it, and they’re covering the costs,” Trump said. In addition, he recalled that NATO countries had agreed to increase their defense spending from 2% to 5% of GDP. According to him, this would open up new contracts for the American military-industrial complex. “This money will remain in the United States and will be used by our defense companies. We will produce the equipment, and they will distribute it. This should have been done three years ago,” the former president emphasized. Source: Duty Calls!
