In a bold rebuke of NATO dynamics, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio has called out European allies for falling short on defense spending. Labeling them ājunior partners,ā Rubio pushed for a drastic hikeāup to 5% of GDPāto maintain NATOās credibility. At his first NATO foreign ministers meeting, he reassured US commitment but demanded others pull their weight. Echoing this, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth warned Europe that US protection is no longer guaranteed unless NATO nations step up. The upcoming June summit will directly address these simmering tensions.

Despite Trump-era tariffs and Pentagon bans, nearly every drone used by American companies still contains critical Chinese components. From engines to airframes and batteries, U.S. drone tech ā including military-grade hardware ā remains heavily reliant on China. Silicon Valley startups, defense contractors, and even top officials like VP J.D. Vance have been exposed using Chinese tech. With China controlling nearly 90% of global drone hardware, experts warn that any cutoff couldcripple the U.S. drone industry for up to a year.
