Which NATO countries spend the most on defense?

There is a clear trend in the defense budgets of NATO members: the closer they are to Russia, the higher the spending.
In remarks made last week, Republican Donald Trump not only warned that he would not defend countries that failed to meet NATO's defense spending target of 2 percent of GDP if they were attacked; he threatened to encourage Russia to "do whatever it wants" with those countries, Politico reported.
Trump has often criticized alliance members for spending too little, and on Feb. 10 called them "criminals." Other US presidents have also urged allies to spend more, albeit in more diplomatic terms.
While several EU countries still fall short of NATO's target, every country bordering Russia or Ukraine does, according to NATO data. The US and Greece also exceed this 2% threshold.
A comparison of NATO members' defense spending in 2014, when the alliance set the 2 percent target, with their expected spending in 2023 shows that almost all countries are allocating more to defense.
The biggest jump in spending was seen in Poland, a frontline country bordering Russia, Ukraine and Russian ally Belarus, with spending jumping from 1.9% of GDP in 2014 to 3.9% last year. This makes it the country with the largest expenditure of GDP among the 31 countries in NATO./BGNES
