What are the chances of missile defense and NATO?

Donald Trump's victory in the US presidential election raises a lot of doubts about security policy. During the election campaign, various radical statements were made about the presence of American troops in Eastern Europe. At the moment, no one knows for sure what the fate of the missile shield will be.

On the one hand, Donald Trump announced a significant increase in the overall potential of the US Army. On the other hand, he criticized Barack Obama, who was at the helm of the United States, for the fact that America spends too much to maintain troops in Eastern Europe.

As reported by The Washington Post, Trump challenged the North Atlantic Treaty during the presidential campaign. “Yes, we are defending Europe with NATO, but we are spending too much money. The financial contribution of the United States is disproportionately high and should be reduced, ”he said.

Donald Trump, speaking of NATO, stressed the need for significant spending by all allies and mentioned Poland as one of the few countries of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization that fulfills its obligations by allocating 2 percent of GDP for the maintenance of the armed forces.
