He says that European nations would have to double their military spending to reach that goal.
NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte, center, greets the audience prior to his address during the Security and Defence Committee at the European Parliament in Brussels, Monday, Jan. 26, 2026.BRUSSELS — NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte insisted on Monday that Europe is incapable of defending itself without U.
S. military support and would have to more than double current military “If anyone thinks here … that the European Union or Europe as a whole can defend itself without the U.S., keep on dreaming. You can’t,” Rutte told EU lawmakers in Brussels. Europe and the United States “need each other,” he said.after a “framework” for a deal over the mineral-rich island was reached, with Rutte’s help. Few details of the agreement have emerged.of NATO’s founding Washington treaty, which commits every country to come to the defense of an ally whose territory is under threat. At NATO’s summit in The Hague in July, European allies — with the exception of Spain — plus Canada agreed to Trump’s demand that they invest the same percentage of their economic output on defense as the United States within a decade. They pledged to spend 3.5% of gross domestic product on core defense, and a further 1.5% on security-related infrastructure — a total of 5% of GDP — by 2035. “If you really want to go it alone,” Rutte said, “forget that you can ever get there with 5%. It will be 10%. You have to build up your own nuclear capability. That costs billions and billions of euros.”Rutte told the lawmakers that without the United States, Europe “would lose the ultimate guarantor of our freedom, which is the U.S. nuclear umbrella. So, hey, good luck!”{"ENV":"VVpjBFsce0FVcGgEYFReA3xjdEB0MnQFfGNSCg==","CONTENT_BASE_PROD":"UnBdXXYiewZVYGdbdBxaTWtjc110InBNf11wBHQyXkJ8c3QGdDFkBH5zcAJ0MXwFa3B7XXcid1h/Y3AEdzJ4TWhjYAN3IXwEfwVkBWAMdAV+Y2NfdBx4T2tdeAZgMlFZfHBrXGMyUgg=","ARC_ACCESS_TOKEN_PROD":"a01kQF0yZAF8BHNOdAhgA3xjdAZgHGQGfHN0TXQidAV/BXRAYAxzX39gaEBgDHAEfGN8QGMMdAV/XXwEYBxsBHxgf1t0IlZNfFpgQGAyZAR/YHRNdjF/Xn8FYARgMnxCfGBrXmMycEx8c1VfdwxkQnwFZ150DGRPaF18T2MidAV/Y39adyJ8Bn9ja153MnRMaF14BnQyZ1h8Y2BNdiJnWHxwZEBjC39caGNjWnQxfAFoY2NfdDFgT2taZAd3IndZa2B7XncMb118cGNeYDFwAQ==","GRAPHQL_KEY":"U39eB1pVVgdQBUleXAtaA3xaZEB0HFZMfFp8BXQhfEx8TXxPYDJ/X3xNfAZ0MnhNf2B7Xncyf1xrXVIFYyJwTGtjVk90DHgFfHN0QHcMcExoXWhPdCFgB39zaAZjIWNefHNaT3cBCAg=","GATEWAY_URL":"fwV/QloMXV9rWkIDYyJgA3xgeEB3InRCfGB4B3cycAB8cGhPdDJnXWtjfAd2MmRNfF1aBnYid15/cGBPdjFjXXxgaEB3MWABf11VXmBUY1xrY3dbYDF/Xg==","GATEWAY_SLS_URL":"a2NVBF0Lb0xUf2sEXQtgA39zWgZ0InAAfGBoT2AMdAF8Y3RAYBx0BGtddE92MnBPfwVgB3QydAB8Y3xAdiFsBXxzeAdgMW9dfE1VW2Mxf1hrXVlbYzFgTw==","FEEDS_URL":"Uk1nQGNUDEB+Y39YXSJSA39ga153MnABfHNaT3QMcAd/Y1IHdwxwTXxzeAd2MnQBf010QHYicAV/Y3RPYzF8B2hda1tjMnwFf1p4QGBUfAB8cGBNdAtjXGtgaAR3DFYHfFpoTmMxcAFrYGtfYFRgBXxzYAo=","RESIZER_KEY":"UFpVQ2ALRUNSYEkDYDFaA39gZE5gHHAEfHNwBXQMYAR8WnRNYBx4BnxzUkB0MnhMfGNoTWMMY15rYHhAdyFvX3xdYEBgMlFda2BgTnQicARrY2BNdCFvXWtaYE1jIWAEa110QHcRCAg=","GOOGLEANALYTICS_ID":"VHBZBWBUYE1QBHNAdwxSA39wYAdjDGdZfF18QGMydAd/Y1IHYzJnXXxjWgR3InxP","TWITTER_API_TOKEN":"fE1ZR1gcUV9ScF1HdzJgA39dWgRgDHgFfE18BmBUYEJ8Y2RAdCJ8Qn9jfAV3MXxPf01WTnYyeAVoXVJPYDJ/WWtgdE93HFFcf01/XmMLfAZ8cHhPdzJWAGtdfAZ0Mndda2N0BmMLfEJoWnwFdCFjWWtje19jMWNZfGB7W3YheAFoYGQFYzJjXH9zc1t2IWxNaF1rW2MydAB8c3NdYwtzX35jUgJ3DGdca3B7W3cxf118Y11adjF4BGtddAN3Il5PaGNWAnYheE1rY3dfdAtsBnxzXVp0VGwHf3B4B2AcXVl+YH9adFRsAGhgf1p3VGAGfHN/WmMyUkxoY1ladyFwBmgFd1p3ImQEaE1zXHcxbAdoBXgCYzJeTX5jYAd0C3hMaE1oAnQheABoTX9ddzF4B2hdUgN3DFIHfmNSCg==","GOOGLE_CLIENT_EMAIL":"aGB4TlwhewdVBWNPWgt4A3xwaEB3HGBCf2NoB3cicAF8cGRPdDJwAHxzfEBjDHddfF14B3YydAdrY3RAdCFvWXxjeAdjDHtffGNZW3cifAV/BXhOYDJ8AHwFY1pgHHgGfE1ZWnYxY1hrY2NadDFzXHwFf1t3IWwBfGBrW2AxYEJrY2taYyJ4QmtgYAJ0MnxPa11dXGAxYE98BWhOdjFkTGhNVgo=","GOOGLE_PRIVATE_KEY":"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
