With Donald Trump's reelection, NATO allies meeting their defense spending obligations is more important than ever.
But why did the allies agree to such obligations in the first place? @JordanMBecker, Tim Hasebrouck, and I evaluate which states were most eager to make the 2% "Wales pledge"

PS. It is quite interesting to see that we (Czechia) supported the idea in 2014... and yet we have failed to deliver so far (hopefully this year - 2024 - we will make it to 2%).

Another nice paper by @JordanMBecker (et al.), this time on "why did NATO allies... agreed to ‘aim to move towards’ increased defense spending (2% of GDP on defense and 20% of def. budgets on equipment) at their 2014 Wales Summit?"

PS. Even the very first descriptive table is super-interesting.

5/This argument finds support from participant interviews & a purpose-built dataset including overall defense spending and share of defense budgets allocated to equipment modernization, vulnerability to security threats and ‘abatement cost’ of meeting the Wales Pledge aims).

6/We find that vulnerability and abatement costs affected both the order in which states agreed the pledge, and the extent to which they have complied with it.
