U.S. President Donald Trump and his NATO counterparts are due to gather Tuesday for a summit.

The meeting could unite the world’s biggest security organization around a new defense spending pledge or widen divisions among the 32 allies.

The alliance operates on a consensus that requires the backing of all 32 members.

Under NATO ’s new military plans, 300,000 military personnel would be deployed within 30 days to counter any attack, whether it be on land, at sea, by air or in cyberspace.

Finland and Sweden joined NATO recently because of this concern.

The U.S. is carrying the biggest military burden because of its high defense spending.
