US Secretary of Defense Heges has recently made a statement regarding the indefinite nature of the presence of US troops in Europe and has urged NATO member countries to increase their defense spending. This announcement comes as part of ongoing discussions within NATO to address security challenges and enhance military capabilities.
The US Secretary of Defense emphasized the importance of European nations taking more responsibility for their defense and security. This call for increased defense spending is seen as a push towards NATO members meeting their commitment to allocate 2% of their GDP towards defense expenditures.
In response to these developments, Ramesh Khatri, a representative of Kansai Nepal News, expressed his views. He highlighted the significance of NATO members fulfilling their financial obligations to ensure collective security and emphasized the need for a fair burden-sharing among member countries. Khatri also stressed the importance of maintaining a strong transatlantic alliance to address evolving security threats effectively.
