Description

NATO allies are racing to rearm, with the UK launching its own Multilateral Defence Mechanism to slash procurement costs by up to 20%, while Canada’s Defence Bank gains traction with eight nations and major banks — though the UK refuses to join, citing gaps in stockpiling and small-firm focus. Poland, Netherlands, and Finland are already backing the UK’s plan, and former PM Gordon Brown is helping broker alignment to avoid duplication — all aiming to let creditworthy allies borrow cheaply for wartime stockpiles, off their balance sheets.
