THE HAGUE, Netherlands (AP) — U.S. President Donald Trump and his NATO counterparts are meeting at what might be a historic summit. It could also drive a wedge among the 32 member countries. Just a week ago, things had seemed rosy. NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte was optimistic for an agreement to dedicate 5% of GDP to defense spending. Then Spain rejected the new target, calling it “unreasonable.” Trump too has said that America should not have to respect the goal. Questions also remain over Ukraine’s place at the meeting. The summit Wednesday has also been clouded by the U.S. bombing of nuclear installations in Iran.
