The USA takes care of its own. There is no invoice for their service when allies are in need. That is outrageous. There is a reason why a percentage of GDP is required in the alliance. I don’t care if Lithuania is up to date on their percentage GDP or not; Lithuania is not to be held hostage when the alliance is in need.

Out of the question.
We are the USA military and not soldiers of fortune. Lithuania is a NATO partner and Article 5 has already been invoked. This price gouging for USA presence is exploitation. On one hand Trump is courting Putin to increase Russia’s push into Ukraine thinking Trump is in his back pocket, and then when NATO borders are being impinged by Russia, Trump decides to charge for USA services. Absolutely not in any capacity.
