McClatchy cites the Atlantic Council for hosting an event with NATO Secretary General Anders Fogh Rasmussen:
Anders Fogh Rasmussen, secretary general of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, said all 28 of its members should devote at least 2 percent of their gross domestic products to the military.
“We’re surrounded by conflict, danger, disorder and autocratic regimes — an arc of instability from the Middle East to North Africa and beyond, rising tensions and territorial disputes in Asia, and revisionist Russia breaking international rules and undermining trust,” Rasmussen told foreign ambassadors and influential strategic thinkers at the Atlantic Council, a Washington think tank.
