🚨🚨🚨Important🚨🚨🚨 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 🚨🚨🚨Extremely Important for Americans🚨🚨🚨 There is a lot of disinformation going around regarding regarding NATO and the costs involved for Americans. As you can see from the attached imagine below this post. It would lead you to believe that America is spending a massive portion of NATO defense spending. This isn’t true and this includes its own defence spending for its homeland and its various bases around the world, this isn’t money spent defending Europe. Below you will find the actual percentages of NATO defence spending. You will see America spends the exact same amount as Germany, followed closely by the UK then France. Germany – 15.8813 % United States – 15.8813 % United Kingdom – 10.9626 % France – 10.1940 % Italy – 8.5324 % Canada – 6.6840 % Spain – 5.8211 % Türkiye – 4.5927 % Netherlands – 3.3528 % Poland – 2.9015 % Belgium – 2.0447 % Sweden – 1.9277 % Norway – 1.7267 % Denmark – 1.2744 % Romania – 1.1931 % Greece – 1.0273 % Czechia – 1.0259 % Portugal – 1.0194 % Finland – 0.9057 % Hungary – 0.7380 % Slovakia – 0.5014 % Bulgaria – 0.3552 % Croatia – 0.2910 % Lithuania – 0.2493 % Slovenia – 0.2212 % Luxembourg – 0.1645 % Latvia – 0.1550 % Estonia – 0.1213 % Albania – 0.0882 % North Macedonia – 0.0756 % Iceland – 0.0624 % Montenegro – 0.0283 % If you want to question the cost and what NATO is worth to individual nations. Imagine how much it would cost, for all the military equipment, personal, weapons, technology and expertise and co operation of all other 31 nations in the alliance fighting either you. NATO is priceless. NATO is preventative. It ensures you are not attacked. I will leave you with this as a certainty, there is no country on this planet that has been helped more by NATO other than the US, even out of wartime, and regardless that America was the only other country to trigger article 5 and the whole of the alliance. We went to war for America in Iraq for 8 years and 9 months. We went to war for America in Afghanistan for 19 years and 10 months. Every day we help protect American bases and interests around the globe. Please bookmark this post. And when you see the below image or people posting disinformation around this matter, share this on that post so people know it’s bullshit. Thank you.

“Oh my god… I have no words.” Listen to the emotional moment this year’s laureate Maria Corina Machado finds out she has been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. Kristian Berg Harpviken, Director of the Norwegian Nobel Institute, shared the news with her directly before it was announced to the world. #NobelPrize #NobelPeacePrize

What an incredible achievement by Jamie, Ewan & Lachlan Maclean! 139 days of unsupported, non-stop rowing across the Pacific, battling storms and breaking the world record - and all to help others get clean water. Scotland couldn’t be prouder. 💙 bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c987…
