A day after Donald Trump tweeted that Germany owes "vast sums of money to NATO & the United States must be paid", Germany responded proving there is o such debt.
According to Reuters, German Defense Minister Ursula von der Leyen said "there is no debt account at NATO," and she added that it is wrong to suggest to force NATO countries to pay 2% of their economic output on defense to NATO.
The reason, the minister said, is because part of the defense spending also goes into UN peacekeeping missions, into European missions and into contributions to fight terrorism.
In short, Trump lied when he said Germany owed a lot of money to NATO. And Germany proved it.
