The UK, as well as France, Spain, Italy, and Canada, has rejected a proposal for NATO member states to spend 0.25% of their GDP on military assistance to Ukraine, The Telegraph reported on Sunday.
NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte was hoping that mandatory funding for Kiev would be approved at the bloc’s summit in Ankara, Türkiye on July 7-8, but a NATO insider told the paper that Britain, France, Spain, Italy, and Canada “aren’t very enthusiastic about the idea.”
