In this Liberty Nation article, Dave Patterson reports that the 2026 NATO Summit in Ankara showed the alliance rising to President Trump’s long-standing challenge for greater European defense investment and burden-sharing.
- NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte credited Trump with achieving what presidents since Eisenhower sought: more balanced spending, citing $258 billion in additional European and Canadian outlays in 2025-2026, putting the alliance on track for a 5% GDP target.
- Allies announced major procurements including Saab GlobalEye surveillance aircraft for a 10-nation consortium and Canada’s purchase of up to 12 new submarines, with Canada already meeting its 2% GDP goal early.
- Trump announced U.S. licensing for Ukraine to produce Patriot missiles domestically and lifted CAATSA sanctions on Türkiye while signaling potential F-35 program reinstatement.
- The summit declaration reaffirmed Article 5 collective defense, described Russia as a long-term threat, and called for Iran to never acquire nuclear weapons while respecting navigation in the Strait of Hormuz.
- European allies are assuming greater responsibility, with multinational contracts signaling strengthened defense industry cooperation amid ongoing global threats.
