Watch other NATO leaders grimace as Trump claims they owe money

“Deploying a reasonable force” doesn’t sound like what’s needed for defence.
I, too, have heard that France is the only European country currently capable of deploying intervention troops somewhere in Africa, for example. But defending against a hypothetical Russian attack is different, I’d imagine that for the German Bundeswehr to help defend the Baltics is little different from operating on German soil. The distances involved are not that great.
