Former US leader Donald Trump wants NATO to provide assistance to Ukraine for the war against the Russian Federation on a par with official Washington.
Trump wants increased aid for Ukraine
The scandalous ex-president of the USA began to complain that the aid of the States to Kyiv was much greater than the aid of other NATO members.
According to Donald Trump, Washington helps Ukraine by more than 100 billion dollars more than the Alliance.
We have nobody that they respect, and they insist on paying far less than we do. Wrong, NATO should equalise, and now. They will do so if properly asked. If not, then America first.

Trump claims that he was able to strengthen NATO
The former American leader continues to insist that he made NATO "strong" during his presidency, as he famously forced members of the bloc to pay more to meet defence spending targets of 2 per cent of GDP.
As Donald Trump claims, then "money flowed like a river".
When I told the 20 countries that weren't paying their fair share that they had to pay, and said that without it you wouldn't have US military protection, the money flowed. After so many years of the US paying the bills, it was a beautiful sight. But now that I'm not here to say, "You have to pay," they're back to the old ways," added the former US President.
