【丰业银行：特朗普5%的军费要求不切实际，将使西半球更不安全】金十数据1月10日讯，加拿大丰业银行经济学家Derek Holt认为，美国当选总统特朗普要求本月盟国将GDP的5%用于国防，这将使西半球变得更不安全、更不可靠、更脆弱。加拿大目前的支出约为1.25%，即每年400亿加元。Holt计算，如果将这一比例提高到北约承诺的2%，在立即实施的情况下将相当于每年600亿加元，尽管加拿大已承诺到2032年达到这一目标。Holt估计，要达到GDP的5%，如果立即实施，将意味着每年高达1500亿加元，如果到2032年实施，每年将达到2100亿加元。对于一个大约3万亿加元的经济体来说，10年的总规模将达到1.5万亿至2万亿加元。Holt称，这是不可能发生的，如果加拿大面临毁灭性的关税和该国的赤字爆发，使防御空间更小，那就肯定不会发生。
