TODAY'S SITREP
1. NATO Agrees to Historic 5% Defense Spending Goal
President Donald J. Trump is fresh off a massive victory at the NATO summit where he brokered a landmark agreement among member nations to increase defense spending to 5% of GDP by 2035.
This includes 3.5% for core military expenses and 1.5% for infrastructure, intelligence, and cybersecurity. The move addresses Trump's long-standing criticism of NATO members' low defense contributions.
Despite warnings of a massive Iranian cyber reprisal following U.S.–Israel strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities, the response has been limited and ineffective.
Security analysts report only minor phishing attempts and brief data-wipe attacks.
Meanwhile, Israeli cyber units reportedly dealt a heavy blow—hacking an Iranian crypto-linked bank and erasing roughly $90 million in digital assets.
3. U.S.–Pakistan Open Dialogue on Long-Term Peace
Secretary of State Marco Rubio spoke with Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, discussing how Islamabad can contribute to durable peace between Israel and Iran.
Pakistan is seeking to elevate its global diplomatic role and formally nominated President Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize—citing his involvement in the current ceasefire, de-escalation with India, and the expanding Abraham Accords framework.
FINAL WORD
Trump’s legacy of diplomacy continues to shape the post-conflict environment: NATO has committed to a historic defense spending increase. Iran’s cyber threats have proven hollow. Unexpected players like Pakistan are stepping forward to support peace. The world is adjusting not through ideology, but through strength, deterrence, and deal-making.
On today's episode of Human Events Daily, President Trump just absolutely cleaned up at the Supreme Court. This is in regards to universal injunctions, birthright citizenship, Planned Parenthood, and more. Join me as a I break all of this down.
