I'm just shocked the French and Brits are still getting along.

Should NATO exist?

It's a question I'm seeing more and more over the past few years, especially from the American side of things.

And it's a fair question, but I think people who ask that kind of question in

that way might not fully know how NATO actually works and what it does.

Because it ain't exactly the U.S just dropping pallets of money into European defense funds like some people imagine.

Recent geopolitical events have both strained and strengthened the alliance,

and why it exists in the first place has left a lot of people's working memory in the last few years.

So Article 5, the like and subscribe button, and let's talk about it.

Also, if this video gets 30,000 likes, I'll grow my mustache back.

Ah yes, NATO.

The thing people confuse with the UN and the European Union a lot for some reason.

And the source of those stupid AI videos, comparing if Montenegro, Albania, or North Macedonia would win in a war.

Leave your guess on the victor down in the comments.

But to start us off, I kind of want to frame how I want you to look at NATO.

I think it's useful to view the alliance first and foremost as just a simple set of guidelines.

If you want to be in the club, you gotta play by the rules.

And I want to frame it this way because I think it helps cut through the more, we'll call it passionate rhetoric a little bit.

Now that set of rules creates one thing, and it's the thing that actually gives NATO its teeth.

That one thing is called interoperability.

Interoperability, simply put, is the ability for country A's military and country B's military to fight together at the same time.

It's what makes two or more different armies fight as one, as opposed to them just coincidentally fighting the same set of bad guys at the same time.

And it is a much larger hurdle to get over than you might think, especially when your alliance is over 30 countries spread out over multiple continents.

I think a good example to give here would be Libya in 2011,

where a coalition of a dozen or so NATO members conducted a huge air campaign with just a few weeks' notice.

They shared fuel, ammo, and intel.

That kind of interoperability would not have been possible if not for a decades prior set of very,

very boring meetings and technical documents that are about as fun to read as point-blank shooting yourself in the hand.

To illustrate what I meant with a more up-to-date example, we're going to be talking about Sweden, one of the newest members having only officially joined in March of 2024.

I recently spent some time in the town of Lulea, home to a Swedish Air Force Base, and also candy stores that mostly just sold cigarettes for some reason.

And I got to follow along with their combat search and rescue teams, their version of American PJs, and also have very unflattering pictures of me taken.

When I went, I really wanted to know how things had changed since they finally joined NATO.

And the answer I got over and over was pretty much nothing.

Just kind of surprising, right?

You'd think

that joining what is arguably the most powerful military alliance to

ever exist in human history would come with at least a small highlight reel of events.

But for Sweden and many of the other recent inductees, such as Finland, not a ton has actually changed.

The reality is that all these countries were already working together extensively.

Really, the only thing that has changed from what I was told is

that they just had more opportunities to go train with other countries, but not countries they hadn't already been training with for years or decades already.

While NATO has, on paper, expanded, and that can drive certain discussions and criticisms,

the practical reality and the actual balance of power really hasn't.

If Russia decided it wanted to have a rematch with Finland prior to it of joining NATO, NATO would have joined in regardless,

even if the Finns aren't really as hot as Swedes or Norwegians.

So what does change when you join NATO, and why am I trying to make you think of it as a set of rules?

Well, mostly because that's kind of just what it is.

A good example of this is the thing I'm holding in my hand.

This was originally made to be slapped into an American M16, but if I wanted to, for some reason, I could fly over to the UK, fill it with British-made ammo,

grab a French rifle, and shoot it.

Perhaps at a guy from Portugal as payback for inventing Brazil.

NATO rules exist so

that the alliance can operate as one big military rather than a collection of countries

that all happen to be on the same side.

A big thing is logistics, obviously.

As illustrated by my metaphorical example where I murdered an innocent Portuguese man, NATO pushes for standard ammunition so that people can share ammo.

Standard petroleum types, so that the same fuel Italy uses in its tanks,

can also be used in a generator that some Czech dude is using to charge his personal morale-boosting equipment.

Whatever you think that thing was I just showed on screen, that's what it was.

But a lot more is standardized across the board, not just the things I mentioned.

Everything from unit symbols, how weather is reported, the size of screw heads, how batteries are labeled, and the shape

and size of mid-air refueling probe holes are all standardized so that everyone can use everyone else's stuff.

But there are other rules that have to do with specific capabilities,

and the one I was watching when I was over there was specifically how the Swedish combat search and rescue operated, from the language and specific words used over the radio,

to the sequence of events after the pilot was hauled back onto the bird.

After talking with these guys, they told me that the new NATO standard requirements they had to follow were actually more stringent than what they had before,

ultimately making them more effective.

This kind of standardization means that a Spanish fighter pilot, if he got shot down, could be rescued by a German rescue helicopter team,

even if the two countries had never actually practiced that kind of thing together.

So while if we're talking about practical real-world balances of power, joining NATO as a European country doesn't really shift the needle that much.

If the Swiss, I don't know, finally decided that neutrality is for cowards and magically join the alliance tomorrow,

I don't think anyone would take that as an aggressive, bloodthirsty war posture.

But what it does do, though, is make working together way easier or just possible to begin with.

A lot of that is because NATO members have easier access to things like shared classified information and technology.

Meaning, if you have a bunch of secret intelligence on bad guys, and you think, I don't know, Bulgaria really needs to see it for some reason,

there is an easy and already established line of communication to make that happen.

If, however, I wanted to tell Ireland this really cool fact I learned

while looking at a neat laptop with a red wire coming out of it, it would be much harder.

Take a lot more time, and by the time they did get that super cool fact, it might not be useful to them anymore.

Being in NATO allows access to combined friend or foe networks for your Air Force, and shared battlespace management software, radio encryption, and a mountain of other very,

very important things, but I don't want to get too much into the weeds

here before I lose even more of the audience with minute details.

The takeaway is that there are literally thousands of these examples.

The rules and sets make sure

that each military has a bare minimum level of performance and follows some standards that make interoperability possible.

So while the US could probably handle Russia without Estonia's help, we can stage our military in that country and already know

that we can use their jet fuel and talk on the same radio frequencies.

But probably one of the biggest questions right now is why NATO is a thing in a post-Cold War era.

What exactly is the point these days?

Neither the USSR or the Warsaw Pact, even exist anymore.

Even more to consider is that 10 countries

that would have fought against NATO in World War 3 just 40 years ago are now fully-fledged NATO members themselves.

Russia, the country NATO is always talking about fighting, can't even win a war against its neighbor,

so the idea that they'd be able to amass a horde and storm across Europe is basically laughable.

So why is the alliance spending trillions as if it's going to happen tomorrow?

It's a good criticism.

And unfortunately, the argument against that line of thinking is hard to quantify with a number

or a fact that's going to make everyone happy.

NATO was formed originally to deter Soviet expansion into Western Europe.

100

And if that failed, at least hold the line and prevent communist territorial gains.

101

In that sense, they were pretty successful.

102

One of the big things

103

that prevented more land wars in Europe after World War II was the fact

104

that the Soviets were not guaranteed a win on the ground.

105

There were enough tanks, planes, and dudes with rifles on the other side of the Iron

106

Curtain to make Russian military planners think twice about pulling any triggers.

107

So while one can argue that NATO did its job and helped prevent World War III, one can also argue that it spent decades

108

and trillions getting guys really good at LARPing in the woods

109

and spending their weekends pretending to do war stuff in the 1980s.

110

And that's why it's hard to quantify.

111

You can't show alternatives if deterrence is working.

112

If World War III had kicked off and the Russians got spanked on day three,

113

we could have all looked back and said that we really overdid it with the military spending stuff.

114

Or if it had kicked off and not gone well for us, we could have said that we learned our lesson and this is what happens when you don't have strong enough militaries.

115

But NATO has never gone toe-to-toe with Russia, and a big part of that is because the deterrence factor worked then and it's working now.

116

The time, money, and energy put into NATO is maintaining just the status quo

117

and we don't know what would have happened if we disbanded and saved all of our money after the USSR fell apart.

118

It's hard to tell your population that you need to spend more on your military

119

when the average person can't actually look around and point at something that got better by you doing that.

120

You have to argue that something hypothetical never happened and that some hypothetical thing might happen in the future,

121

and therefore, we need to spend less money on schools

122

and more money on ammo that a conscript is just going to shoot into a plastic dummy target anyway.

123

Thank you, kind citizens of NATO, for your 1.5 trillion annual investment.

124

Here is a war that never happened.

125

We do, however, know that Georgia, a non-NATO country, was invaded by Russia in 2008, and they are still there in 2026.

126

Ukraine, also not in NATO,

127

lost Crimea in 2014, and is currently still fighting tooth and nail to retake Russian-occupied territory after the 2022 invasion.

128

Now those are hard data points to just take at face value though.

129

Some have argued that these are direct results of NATO expansion in Europe,

130

and that Russia has a justified goal of establishing a buffer between their federation and the alliance.

131

But also worth looking at the fact that after both the Crimea takeover and the 2022 full-scale invasion,

132

multiple countries, including those with strong neutrality agreements, rushed to join NATO.

133

So even if you do argue that Russian aggression is a result of NATO expansion, the result has worsened Russia's security posture, not stabilized it.

134

If you're a European country close to Putin's house and you don't want to have to redraw your borders anytime soon, a surefire way to prevent that,

135

in 2026 at least, is to join NATO.

136

Remember kids, militaries might be expensive, but so is hiring contractors to move the sign that says, now entering Poland, back a few dozen miles closer to the capital.

137

All that is to say is that deterrence has worked

138

so well that people forget why we're doing it in the first place.

139

Also worth mentioning there that other countries than just Russia might want to pick a fight with a member of NATO,

140

and we've seen numerous conflicts between countries not in the alliance, but in the region.

141

And while I've said that being fully in the alliance doesn't necessarily move the power needle that much, it does have very real consequences.

142

Azerbaijan, for example, partners with NATO countries all the time, but they aren't actually in NATO.

143

And they also have a tendency to constantly be fighting with the Armenians.

144

It's not hard to imagine that with NATO political leverage, those wars would probably not have been fought,

145

both from deterring Armenia from trying to do anything and keeping those slippery Azerbaijanis on a leash.

146

We all talk about how NATO prevented World War III, but I think we really need to appreciate

147

that it's the only thing keeping the Turks and the Greeks from literally killing each other.

148

While it's not exactly something in the world's living memory anymore,

149

Europe literally could not stop fighting itself for like all of human history up until NATO was formed.

150

And while the Cold War almost did go hot a few times, this is the longest old Europa has gone without everyone marching to their deaths in a hot minute.

151

This is of course causing a lot of issues because most men of European descent,

152

like myself, have a biological clock that demands we die violently in some random Prussian field before we turn 30.

153

So having lived this long is feeling unnatural and this is what I blame the falling testosterone levels on.

154

Now as an American, I always kind of had NATO as a side thought.

155

It's something we're in and that we do most of the work.

156

It's no secret that the United States military does provide a hefty or even majority chunk of the alliance's warfighting capabilities.

157

This has led many in the US with a feeling like

158

the rest of NATO is freeloading off of American taxpayer dollars

159

and expecting our troops to go defend their country while their own populations aren't willing to do it themselves.

160

But how true is this notion?

161

Where does this idea come from?

162

Well, probably the simplest thing to look at is money.

163

Press releases and staged handshakes are one thing, but putting your literal money where your mouth is is another.

164

In 2025, the collective NATO members spent about 1.5 trillion US dollars on defense.

165

Zoom in a little bit though, and about $950 billion of that was the United States,

166

and $550 billion came from the other 31 NATO countries all combined.

167

From that number alone, it would be very easy to draw a simple straight line saying

168

that the U.S is doing more than its fair share of the heavy financial lifting, combined with the fact

169

that about a third of those in the alliance do not meet the current 2% GDP spending requirement

170

that all countries in NATO are required to hit.

171

Now, a decade ago, the number of countries not hitting their spending requirements was closer to literally all of them, but it still meant that in 2025 last year,

172

one in three NATO members were not doing their fair share of putting taxpayer dollars in the fire pit

173

that is military defense spending.

174

And that is a valid metric, but it leaves out a lot of important information.

175

First is that not every dollar the U.S spends on military stuff is directly to NATO's benefit.

176

American troops are, by and large, paid significantly higher than their NATO counterparts and receive astronomically better benefits like education,

177

healthcare, family support, housing, the list goes on, and the list is expensive.

178

I'm not saying those are bad things to spend money on, but it does mean that, for example,

179

it costs the US a lot more money to stick a guy in a submarine than it does France or the UK.

180

Other things like domestic disaster relief, humanitarian missions, border security, or even just fixing potholes on a military base all cost billions in total

181

and don't exactly work to the direct benefit of Europe's ability to defend itself.

182

Our gear is also just way more expensive, and American F-35 costs more than a Eurofighter.

183

One American aircraft carrier costs more than the entire British and French carrier fleet combined.

184

We've decided to optimize our military for a level capability no one else is even trying to match, which makes our line item per soldier much bigger.

185

That's a choice, and that choice has a price.

186

But it's not really money spent on NATO, necessarily.

187

It's also important to keep in mind that NATO is not the only alliance the U.S is part of.

188

The ANZUS, which is the alliance between the U.S., Australia, and New Zealand, is also a major one.

189

Mutual defense treaties with countries like Japan, South Korea, and the Philippines also drive American military spending and effort.

190

Not to mention Israel, the Five Eyes arrangement,

191

Taiwan, and the dozens and dozens of security cooperation missions we have quite literally in every corner of the globe,

192

teaching local militaries which end of the rifle a bullet comes out of.

193

Most NATO countries do have some level of dialogue and cooperation with those groups too, but not at the level and financial obligation as the United States.

194

So while yes, even if we ignore the extra stuff, the United States does fill a disproportionate chunk of NATO's bill,

195

but it's not intellectually honest to just look at the big raw numbers and draw decisive conclusions.

196

I know saying something isn't intellectually honest is like the most pretentious way of phrasing that, but I could not think of a simpler way to put it because I am not that smart.

197

But if we want to stick with the cynical American angle, what do we, the United States with our now 1.5 trillion dollar military budget,

198

world-class warfighting abilities, and White House UFC fights, have to gain from what some Americans consider to be a

199

bunch of weird European socialist freeloaders whose only recent contribution to human progress were plastic bottle lids

200

that don't come off all the way and Ed Sheeran's musical catalog?

201

Allow me to introduce the concept of soft power.

202

Remember when you scared off the one girl willing to talk to you

203

because you thought she cared you could leg press 300 pounds and you kept referring to women as females?

204

This is what you need in your life.

205

Soft power is all the leverage we have on other countries that don't involve pointing a gun at them.

206

So even if you could make an argument

207

that the U.S disproportionately keeps the war chest full compared to the rest of the NATO countries,

208

that also gives us a ton of political and economic leverage, which is useful when you consider

209

that Europe is the second largest economy in the world and has 107 million more people than the U.S.

210

In the myriad shady and complex world of global geopolitics,

211

where handing a kid a USAID-sponsored soccer ball in some remote African village has somehow dominoed us into threatening to invade Cuba,

212

it doesn't take a lot of mental gymnastics to see how

213

the United States having a strong role in Europe's defense would it lends us a few favors here and there,

214

like strong-arming them into buying billions of dollars worth of F-35s and American-made explosive ammo.

215

Now that's another thing I don't want to get too into the weeds on with this, but it is worth mentioning here.

216

When you are the security backstop for an entire continent, basically, you also get bases on that continent.

217

Bases in Germany, Italy, the UK, Spain, Turkey, Greece, the Netherlands, Poland, the Baltics.

218

You also get forward intelligence stations, pre-positioned equipment, air refueling tracks.

219

Kind of like your real dad, we get to just stick things in wherever we want.

220

When the US struck Iran earlier this year during Epic Fury,

221

a non-trivial chunk of the aircraft involved staged through bases on NATO soil and refueled in NATO airspace.

222

None of that happens without the alliance framework already in place that lets us be there.

223

If you wanted to renegotiate every one of those base and airspace agreements, country by country tomorrow, the prices would be very different.

224

And by that, I mean have a couple zeros added to the end of them.

225

Now, I would be doing you a disservice if I didn't also cover the actual downsides of NATO, because the alliance has plenty.

226

It is, for one, organizationally incredibly slow.

227

Anything official has to be agreed on by a consensus across 32 different countries

228

that don't get along more often than they do, which means any one member can stop the entire group from acting on something.

229

Hungary has used that veto power to do unhelpful things on multiple occasions.

230

Turkey has used it to extract concessions out of new applicants, like some kind of grade school bully.

231

And France occasionally uses it because France is French, and I shouldn't have to explain any further.

232

NATO also has just a sheer mountain of redundancies.

233

Every member country has its own military with its own staff and its own procurement.

234

And then there's another layer of NATO joint planning sitting on top of it all, with its own staff, its own procurement,

235

and its own priorities, and the two layers do not always speak smoothly to each other, to put it lightly.

236

They can also, and this is important, drag the U.S into fights we don't want.

237

If a tiny member country picks a fight with a big neighbor, Article 5, in theory, pulls everyone else in, including us.

238

This is painfully relevant given the specific fight that NATO is actually preparing for.

239

No one actually thinks 10 budge alien T-72s in flanker aircraft are going to be pouring over the border next week.

240

The reality is that Russia is much more likely to attempt some kind of blitzkrieg-style play in a small,

241

ethnically Russian section of a bordering country and hunker down after they take a chunk out of it, as they historically have.

242

Outside of the whole, you know, going full send in 2022 and getting pee-pee slapped in Kiev, it would be very, very hard to explain to the American people,

243

or really any population not that close to Russia or the country attacked, that we need to send our troops over to some corner of a country that most people

244

couldn't even place on a map or even knew existed before the fighting started.

245

NATO countries obviously know this, and it's led many countries closer to Russia to really try to incentivize greater cooperation from those farther away,

246

like Spain, Greece, or the United States.

247

The only time Article 5 was ever actually used was after 9-11, But going off to fight the flip-flop brigade with your country's best

248

and brightest is a much easier sell than literally going to war with Russia.

249

And it's an ask that many aren't actually sure would be answered these days.

250

But hopefully we never find out.

251

And the worst that comes out of this is that American troops complain that they're bored during their Poland rotational deployment.

252

But for now, NATO is gonna NATO.

253

And by that, I mean put a bunch of trenches

254

and drones along the Russian border and post more of those MRE swap social media videos.

255

But on that note, thank you for watching.

מהי טכניקת השאדואינג?

שאדואינג היא טכניקת למידת שפה מבוססת מדע שפותחה במקור להכשרת מתורגמנים מקצועיים ופופולרית על ידי הפוליגלוט ד"ר אלכסנדר ארגואלס. השיטה פשוטה אך עוצמתית: אתה מקשיב לאודיו באנגלית ילידית וחוזר עליו בקול רם מיד — כמו צל העוקב אחרי הדובר עם עיכוב של 1–2 שניות בלבד. בניגוד להאזנה פסיבית או תרגילי דקדוק, שאדואינג מכריח את המוח והשרירים בפה לעבד ולשחזר דפוסי דיבור אמיתיים בו זמנית. מחקרים מראים שזה משפר משמעותית את דיוק ההגייה, האינטונציה, הקצב, הדיבור המחובר, הבנת השמיעה ושטף הדיבור — מה שהופך אותו לאחת השיטות היעילות ביותר להכנה לIELTS Speaking ולתקשורת באנגלית בעולם האמיתי.
