Rubio says US will not continue subsidizing NATO allies

The United States does not intend to continue subsidizing NATO allies, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio has stated.

“These are rich countries, especially in Western Europe, they have plenty of money, they should be investing that in their national security and they are not,” Rubio told Fox News.

“NATO is not in jeopardy. The only thing that puts NATO in jeopardy is the fact that we have NATO allies who barely have militaries or whose militaries are not very capable because they've spent 40 years not spending any money on it,” he said.

Rubio noted that they urged these countries to invest more.
