    There has been much debate over defense spending, investment, and who is sharing the burden of European defense among NATO allies for years.

In this episode we are joined by Ambassador Doug Lute, Colonel Jordan Becker, and German defense expert Aylin Matle to examine the contours of the burden-sharing debate within the alliance, what major decisions came out of the Washington summit, and what lies ahead.
