NATO countries are divided into manufacturers and customers. If a country had a strong, high-tech economy, producing military equipment for itself and for export and if investments went for modernisation, there would be no pressure on its social system.

This is what has been widening technological and economic gaps in the Alliance, President Radev added during a working lunch with U.S. President Donald Trump and leaders of other NATO members that have annual military spending above 2% of their GDP.
