The former national security adviser to the President of the United States, John Bolton, has suggested that Japan, Australia and Israel join NATO.

He believes that through such expansion, the alliance can become a global organization. He also recalled that other countries can also join NATO if they meet its defense spending standards.

Bolton notes that to increase defense funding for the United States and its allies, it is necessary to reduce funding for other industries.

Recall that Finland has already received the approval of all NATO members and joined the bloc, while Sweden’s candidacy is still under consideration by the Hungarian and Turkish authorities.

Bolton is convinced that NATO expansion can bring stability to the world. However, it is necessary to ensure that new members of the alliance meet its standards and requirements.
