Is your country spending 5%* of its GDP on defence?

* Military pensions, infrastructure projects, included.

yes, we're spending tons on, ehh , military roads and military bridges and military healthcare, we also have these military sua subsidies from the eu for military agriculture

It's that easy.

I'm looking forward to Italy's new military bridge

it's criminally underfunded but perhaps one of the few things where the orange man is in the right is that Europe should carry its own weight in national defense, especially with the russians knocking at the door

he doesnt want that he just wants europe to paypig for american weapons harder rather than developing their own

why should we care about russianiggers anyways?
For us Morocco is a far greater threat because of Canarias, Ceuta and Melilla (they have told multiple times directly and indirectly they will eventually take over them and they have cozied up with the US for very long) and big fucking surprise NATO doesn't cover these territories so we would be on our own if anything happened.
I mean, I literally live closer to Israel and even Brazil than to fucking Russia. Again why should I care.

There is nothing wrong with including personelle cost like salaries or pensions (which are part of the compensation package) into defence spending. You need soldiers to fight wars.
Just because Trump wants to sell more overprized American hardware to Europe, doesn't meant that personelle cost are wasted.

doesn't the US also do that and put all the VA shit under "defense spending"?
pot calling the kettle or whatever you guys say

Don't forget that despite NATO not covering Ceuta, Melilla and the Canary Islands they still barred Spain from letting Russian ships berth in our docks, even for refueling.
