Lithuania is the first NATO state to pledge to up its defense spending to 5% of GDP!

SUPPORT OUR FIGHT AGAINST LEFT LUNATICS!

Lithuania, a country of less than 3 million people that borders the Russian exclave of Kaliningrad and the pro-Putin regime in Belarus, vowed in January to boost its defense spending to up to 6% of its gross domestic product by next year.

Citing “Russian military aggression,” the “historic decision” was announced by Lithuania’s President Gitanas Naus?da, as his country became the first NATO nation to sign up to Trump’s call for all member states to reach 5% defense spending. The country spends just over 3% of its GDP on defense.

The Baltic nations of Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania — which were formerly part of the Soviet Union — have been among the most aggressive NATO members in ramping up their defensive capabilities because they view themselves as the most vulnerable targets of Russia’s aggression.

But even combined, their spending is just a drop in the bucket because of their small populations. All together they shelled out about $5.2 billion for defense in 2024 — less than a half the cost of a single US aircraft carrier.

None of the countries have even a single fighter jet.
