From news article:
In a recommendation for NATO's new 10-year strategic vision, experts led by former U.S. Secretary of State Madeleine Albright said only six of NATO's 26 European members were meeting their defense spending target of two percent of GDP.

A NATO official said the six European countries currently meeting the NATO target included Greece, which has been hard hit by the debt crisis, its rival Turkey, and Britain, which, like Greece, is battling to reduce a massive budget deficit.
