U.S. Department of Defense
Secretary of War Pete Hegseth met with UK Defence Secretary Dan Jarvis today in Brussels. Secretary Hegseth congratulated Secretary Jarvis on his recent appointment.
The two leaders discussed efforts to implement NATO 3.0, with European allies taking primary responsibility for Europe's conventional defense, including support for Ukraine's defense. They also discussed the critical need for all allies — especially those with the economic and military capacity to drive NATO's transition to an European/Canadian ally-led conventional defense — to show rapid progress toward their Hague Summit pledge of 5% of GDP on defense spending.
