The problem is, the reality is, post fall of the Berlin Wall,
and the dissolution of the USSR, the reality is this.
The risk is asymmetric across the Western nations, across the Western NATO nations.
The risk is asymmetric.
I mean, I don't consider it particularly high probability, but there's a non-zero risk
Russia might invade Poland there is a statistical zero risk that Russia will invade the United States so it's wise for Russia and the Eastern Europeans to be spending a little bit more so the risk is asymmetric but if you contrast that Gunter Ferlinger yarn
Not only is the risk asymmetric, but the financial contributions are asymmetric as well.
Because as we were just saying a moment or so ago, America is paying by far the largest share of proportion and contributions into NATO.
An analogous situation would be like me being a drinker and a smoker, I don't know, and a drug addict.
going to Nextdoor, where they're teetotal fitness freaks, and saying that they've got to pay for my health insurance.
Well, they say, well, of course, Arnold, why should we pay for your health insurance?
Because the risk is asymmetric.

I'm glad Poland is paying 5%.
I think the UK should be paying zero and it should leave.
I think America should be paying zero and it should leave.
And I think Austria, your beloved homeland, actually has the right position, which is neutrality.
