The US will force the UK into boosting defence spending up to 3.5% of GDP as US President Donald Trump pressures Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer and other NATO allies into bolstering their military power, according to reports.
Defence source believe that Sir Keir will be forced to sign an agreement targeting the figure by 2035 at the upcoming Nato summit.
It comes amid a push by Nato secretary general Mark Rutte to retain Trump’s support for the alliance, upon which the US President has frequently cast doubt.
