Rishi Sunak has pledged to increase Britain's defense spending to 2.5% of GDP by 2030, despite concerns from critics about how he will fund this commitment.

He announced an additional £75 billion in defense spending over the next six years at a press conference with NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg.

Sunak emphasised the current global security challenges and vowed to prioritize Britain's defense industry and reiterated Boris Johnson's 2022 promise to meet the 2.5% of GDP target for defense spending by the end of this decade.
