BERLIN (Reuters) โ Germany, Poland, Britain, France and Italy will implement NATOโs new targets for weapons and troop numbers, to be agreed in the summer, as swiftly as possible, German Defence Minister Pistorius pledged on Monday.
Speaking after a meeting with his four counterparts in the Polish town of Nowa Wies, Pistorius welcomed NATOโs decision to fix the allianceโs new capability targets in June instead of October as originally planned, a move he said was triggered by a German request.
โThis buys us a lot of lot of time and we can much earlier kick off the implementation,โ Pistorius told reporters.
