Mark Carney says Trump has 'won the argument' on NATO defense spending

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney said that President Donald Trump has “won the argument” on NATO defense spending, successfully pushing members to spend more on defense.

Carney, one of Trump’s most articulate critics, conceded on Wednesday that he had been successful in revamping NATO members’ stance on defense spending. Speaking at the NATO summit in Ankara, Turkey, Carney praised Trump for his efforts to increase the alliance’s defense spending.
