    Lithuanian president warns NATO could fracture over defense spending

    Lithuanian President Gitanas Nausėda warned that NATO risks fracturing if member states fail to meet the 5% GDP defense spending target by 2035. European countries, including Germany, are struggling to reach this goal, while Baltic states spend more on defense. U.S. President Donald Trump criticized some nations' spending as 'ridiculous,' prompting European leaders to emphasize their efforts to boost defense budgets ahead of the NATO summit in Ankara.
