Nato chief urges 400pct rise in alliance's air defence

LONDON: Nato head Mark Rutte on Monday urged a "quantum leap" in defence capabilities including a "400-per cent increase" in air and missile defence to shield the alliance against Russia. His comments came as he pushes for Nato members to commit to ramping up defence spending at a key summit of the western military alliance later this month. "We see in Ukraine how Russia delivers terror from above, so we will strengthen the shield that protects our skies," the Nato secretary general said in a speech to the Chatham House think-tank in London. To maintain credible deterrence and defence, Nato needs "a 400-per cent increase in air and missile defence", the former Dutch prime minister added. "The fact is, we need a quantum leap in our collective defence," he said. Rutte is urging Nato members to commit to 3.5 per cent of GDP on direct military spending by 2032, and an additional 1.5 per cent on broader security-related expenditure. The proposal is a compromise deal designed to satisfy US President Donald Trump, who has demanded that allies each spend five per cent of economic output on defence, up from a current commitment of two per cent. Rutte said he "expects" leaders to agree to the proposal at the summit of the 32-country alliance on June 24-25 in The Hague. "It will be a Nato-wide commitment and a defining moment for the alliance," he said in his speech. Russia condemned Rutte's comments before he took to the stage, denouncing Nato as "an instrument of aggression". Nato "is demonstrating itself as an instrument of aggression and confrontation", Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters in Moscow. Rutte's speech came after he met UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer on Monday, their second Downing Street talks since the Labour leader came into power in July 2024. Starmer's government this year pledged to increase defence spending to 2.5 per cent of GDP by 2027, but has not yet set a firm timeline for further hikes. On Monday, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney announced Canada would hit two per cent this year. US Secretary of Defence Pete Hegseth said last week the allies were close to an agreement on the split five-per cent target. "That combination constitutes a real commitment, and we think every country can step up," he said on Thursday. Nato members have been scrambling to bolster their defence capabilities since Russia launched its invasion of Ukraine in February 2022. Trump's return to the White House in January, and question marks over his commitment to European security, has added urgency. "Danger will not disappear even when the war in Ukraine ends," Rutte said at Chatham House. "We must have more forces and capabilities to implement our defence plans in full." He added that Russia currently produces the same amount of ammunition in three months as "the whole of Nato produces in a year". "Our militaries also need thousands more armoured vehicles and tanks, millions more artillery shells," Rutte added. Britain announced plans last week to build up to 12 nuclear-powered attack submarines and six munitions factories to rearm the country in response to what it said were threats from Russia. Rutte also warned that China is "modernizing and expanding its military at breakneck speed". "Nato has to become a stronger, fairer and more lethal alliance," he added. And he warned that if countries cannot commit to 5.0 per cent for defence spending "you could still have the National Health Service, or in other countries, their health systems, the pension system, etc, but you better learn to speak Russian. I mean, that's the consequence". - AFP

Does the US ‘need' Canada?

US President Donald Trump had one big question on his mind as Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney headed to Washington last month. 'I very much want to work with him, but cannot understand one simple TRUTH,' Trump said in a social media post, reiterating several ways he believes Canada benefits unfairly from its trade relationship with the United States. The president also repeated his incorrect claim that the United States is 'subsidising' Canada to the tune of US$200bil, alluding to the country's trade deficit with Canada, which is the value of what the United States imports minus its exports. In fact, the trade deficit last year was US$63.3bil, according to US data. And if Canada's energy exports were stripped out, it turns into a trade surplus. For Trump, it all boils down to one point: does the United States need Canada? 'We don't need their cars, we don't need their energy, we don't need their lumber, we don't need ANYTHING they have, other than their friendship,' he said in the social media post. But industry groups say differently. The auto industries in Canada and the United States have become highly interconnected over the past three decades – especially between Detroit and Windsor, Ontario, the busiest commercial crossing along the border – as the countries knocked down trade barriers. In 2023, the US imported about 1.24 million vehicles from Canada, the fourth-­highest tally behind Mexico, Japan and South Korea. The US is the world's top oil producer, but its refineries rely on crude oil, a variety that Canada specialises in extracting. Retooling US refineries to eliminate the need for crude oil would cost billions and companies are not willing to make those investments, especially because of the uncertainty over Trump's trade policies. Besides oil, Canada in 2023 supplied nearly 100% of the natural gas and 85% of the electrical energy imported by the US, according to Canada's energy regulator. Canada also provides more than one-fourth of the uranium the United States imports to run nuclear reactors, federal data shows, more than any other nation. Howard Lutnick, the US Commerce Secre­tary, is investigating whether lumber imports are a threat to national security. In 2021, the United States purchased US$28bil worth of lumber from Canada, nearly half of lumber imports. American industry groups have estima­ted that the tariffs on lumber that Trump has introduced will increase home costs by an average of about US$9,000. For now, the US lumber industry cannot meet the demand from homebuilders, according to a recent analysis by Fast­markets, and it would take the country at least 10 years to whittle down its need for imported lumber. Farmers this year were reminded of ­ the US agriculture industry's reliance on Canadian imports of key chemical ingre­dients used in fertiliser, like potassium-­rich minerals called potash. The United States imports 85% of its ­potash from Canada, which is the world's largest exporter of the minerals. But Trump's tariffs on Canada will make potash more expensive for farmers to import and the increases could be passed down to grocery store shoppers, according to the Fertilizer Institute, a US industry group. Trump says the US needs Canada's friendship. Many Canadians say forget about it. The usually warm relationship between the two countries is in tatters, with Canada invoking a defensive tactic used in hockey – 'elbows up' – as its posture against Trump's economic attacks and threats to make Canada a US state.

TikTok says to increase investment in Britain

LONDON: TikTok plans to raise its investment in the UK, its biggest community in Europe, with the creation of 500 more jobs, the Chinese-owned social media giant announced Monday. The news coincided with the start of London's Tech Week, which sees British Prime Minister Keir Starmer welcoming some of sector's biggest firms. 'TikTok's UK workforce will grow to 3,000 this year with the addition of more than 500 jobs,' the company said in a statement. It added that it was investing in a new London office, set to open next year, and whose size will dwarf its current UK head office. It will take TikTok's investment in UK infrastructure to around £140 million ($190 million), the group said. Around half the UK population, more than 30 million people, use TikTok each month, making it the platform's 'largest user-community in Europe', the statement added. 'Whether through direct investment in jobs and innovation, or the wider economic contribution from millions of British businesses on TikTok, we're pleased to be increasing our investment and presence here in the UK,' said Adam Presser, director of TikTok UK and global head of operations and trust and safety. TikTok has been in the crosshairs of Western governments for years over fears personal data could be used by China for espionage or propaganda purposes. 'What underpins our continued growth is our deep commitment to safety and to creating an enjoyable and secure digital space to sustainably support creators, entrepreneurs and the wider economy, which is why we also invest significantly in safety,' Presser added Monday.
