NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg says he expects Canada to lay out when it will reach the alliance’s target of spending two per cent of GDP on defence.
In an exclusive Canadian interview airing on CTV News Channel’s Power Play with Vassy Kapelos on Tuesday, Stoltenberg said Canada has yet to set a precise date to fulfill its spending commitment.
“But I expect Canada to deliver on the pledge to invest two per cent of GDP on defence, because this is a promise we all made,” Stoltenberg said, pointing to Canada’s geographic significance on the world stage as the country with the second longest coastline.
