- In a moment, we will begin the first part of our annual meeting, as always before the NATO summit, the meeting of the Bucharest Nine […], the eastern flank of NATO. As always, we will discuss security issues. We all know what situation we are in today; a war is currently raging beyond our borders - said President Andrzej Duda at a press briefing in Riga. - Today, we all support Ukraine, which is defending itself, the defenders of Ukraine, […] but above all, we are building the defense potential of our countries. […] We must strengthen ourselves and, above all, build our security. Hence, among other things, I will certainly put forward my proposal here, which I will also submit at the NATO summit in Washington, that defense spending in NATO member states should be raised to the level of 3% of GDP. This should be the lower limit today - he emphasized.
