Episode Details

Canada’s Prime Minister Mark Carney is ramping up defense commitments at the NATO summit, announcing a major deal to buy up to a dozen new submarines from Germany — a bold move to meet NATO’s spending targets amid U.S. pressure from President Trump. Carney credits Trump’s push for allies to shoulder more defense costs, calling it a necessary shift in global security as new threats like hypersonic missiles and AI-driven warfare emerge. Though Hanwha lost the submarine contract, Canada is still deepening ties with South Korea in tech and AI. This marks Canada stepping firmly into NATO’s defense future — and signaling a broader alliance realignment in an era of accelerating global risks.
