"As a former prime minister, I know that it is not always easy for governments to allocate funds for national defense and for aid to Ukraine, but both are crucial for our collective security," said Rutte. His acknowledgment of the challenges in balancing budgets highlights the delicate nature of defense spending amidst pressing security concerns.
Scholz emphasized that German defense spending has doubled in the past seven years, stating, "Europe will make considerable investments in this in the coming years. It's about being able to counter any threat to security in Europe." This underlines Germany's commitment to bolstering its military capabilities.
