First of all, the NATO commitment by individual member states to increase their defense spending is very welcome. It\u2019s something that prior administrations have certainly sought,\u201d Clinton said.<\/p>\n<p>Trump has pressured the other member states to boost spending from just 2 percent of their GDP to 5 percent, and made a deal for NATO to foot the bill for US weapons going to Ukraine.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think it\u2019s great that we are seeing these commitments that now have to be followed through on,\u201d Hillary stated.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Great\u2019 is\u00a0an\u00a0interesting choice of word.<\/p>\n<p>She added that \u201cThe willingness of European countries to support Ukraine, and by doing so by American weapons in order to provide them to the Ukrainians,\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Of course, she wants more weapons for Ukraine, and Trump had to do that deal.<\/p>\n<p>Under the agreement, European NATO members\u2014Germany, the Netherlands, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Finland, the UK, and Canada\u2014commit to purchasing <em>billions <\/em>of dollars worth of American military equipment, including Patriot air defense systems, missiles, artillery, and ammunition.<\/p>\n<p>These allies then either send the newly acquired U.S. weapons directly to Ukraine or donate their existing stockpiles to Kyiv while replenishing their own inventories with U.S. replacements.<\/p>\n<p>This setup marks a shift from direct U.S. aid packages, which Trump has heavily criticized as overly burdensome on American taxpayers.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think all of that is a very good signal that there is beginning to be a better understanding, both by the president and the people around him, as well as by the leaders of our European allies, that there can be common ground amongst us,\u201d Clinton further suggested.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd the kind of dismissiveness that we saw in the first Trump administration has been replaced by a much more obvious working relationship to the good of European security, transatlantic security, and hopefully Ukrainian security. So I\u2019m actually encouraged,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n<p>Elsewhere during the podcast, Hillary commented on Trump\u2019s meeting with Vladimir Putin scheduled for today, noting\u00a0\u201cHonestly, if he could bring about the end to this terrible war, if he could end it without putting Ukraine in a position where it had to concede its territory to the aggressor, could really stand up to Putin \u2014 something we haven\u2019t seen, but maybe this is the opportunity \u2014 if President Trump were the architect of that, I\u2019d nominate him for a Nobel Peace Prize.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBecause my goal here is to not allow capitulation to Putin,\u201d Clinton added.<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin meet today in Alaska and even Hillary Clinton sees a path toward a Nobel Peace Prize for Trump (but it\u2019s going to take a lot).<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s how: <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/SPuj87qz48\">https:\/\/t.co\/SPuj87qz48<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/4GJPBmSnhs\">pic.twitter.com\/4GJPBmSnhs<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Jessica Tarlov (@JessicaTarlov) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/JessicaTarlov\/status\/1956340656550367371?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">August 15, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Trump responded to Clinton\u2019s comments in his inimitable style.<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">\uf525Bige news: Hillary Clinton said &#8220;i will nominate you for the Nobel Peace Prize if you get a deal with Russia without capitulating to Putin&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>\uf399\ufe0fPresident Trump: PRESIDENT TRUMP: &#8220;Well, that was very nice &#8211; I may have to start liking her again.&#8221;\uf601 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/oMvXXe34HR\">pic.twitter.com\/oMvXXe34HR<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Wall Street Mav (@WallStreetMav) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/WallStreetMav\/status\/1956462161942761853?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">August 15, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>As we highlighted earlier, Trump has announced that his meeting with Vladmir Putin on Friday was \u201cvery successful\u201d and that a full peace deal, not merely a ceasefire, is in the works.<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\">\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"X5sMoOflQf\"><p><a href=\"https:\/\/modernity.news\/2025\/08\/16\/trump-announces-peace-agreement-to-end-horrific-war-between-russia-ukraine\/\">Trump Announces \u201cPeace Agreement\u201d To End \u201cHorrific War Between Russia &amp; Ukraine\u201d<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-embedded-content\" title=\"\u201cTrump Announces \u201cPeace Agreement\u201d To End \u201cHorrific War Between Russia &amp; Ukraine\u201d\u201d \u2014 modernity\" src=\"https:\/\/modernity.news\/2025\/08\/16\/trump-announces-peace-agreement-to-end-horrific-war-between-russia-ukraine\/embed\/#?secret=X5sMoOflQf\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" data-secret=\"X5sMoOflQf\"><\/iframe><script><\/p>\n<p>\/*!
