Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez is sticking by his decision to break with NATO allies this week from spending more on defense

We’re negotiating with Spain on a trade deal and we’re going to make them pay twice as much,” Trump said after the country refused to meet the spending target.

President Trump laid into Spain during the NATO summit at The Hague on Wednesday, after it broke ranks with the other member states and declined to increase its military spending to 5 percent of its economic output over a decade.
