If, of course, the differences in the Europeans on the defense will not fade overnight. Italy and Spain, for example, which are important countries on the continent, remain in the tail peloton, with a defense budget very below the 2 % of GDP, a minimum level requested so far by NATO (Italy is 1.49 % and Spain at 1.28 %). Rome and Madrid have no intention, at this stage, to particularly press the step. It was not until 2028-2029 that the two capitals could reach 2 %. Hungary, indeed, also refuses this race for rearmament. However, we can see that the acceleration wanted today by many other countries should still allow the lines to move.
