" NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte on Monday urged the European allies to make a "quantum leap" in military spending to deter Russia, which affirms Trump's own longtime message, as the NATO chief called for a whopping 400% increase in the Continent’s air and missile defense budget.
"The fact is, we need a quantum leap in our collective defense," Rutte said before an audience of the London-based think tank Chatham House.
