Pressure's on PM's defence spending plan
The Sentinel
|June 04, 2025
THE UK is under pressure from Nato to increase defence spending beyond the "ambition" set by Sir Keir Starmer.
-
The Prime Minister has committed to spend 2.5% of gross domestic product on defence from April 2027, with a goal of increasing that to 3% over the next parliament - a timetable which could stretch to 2034.
But Nato secretary-general Mark Rutte is thought to be pushing for allies to commit to spending 3.5% on the military, with a further 1.5% on defence-related measures as the alliance responds to Russian President Vladimir Putin’s actions in Ukraine.
