Nearly all of the remainder of [[Western Europe]] has joined NATO, with the additional exceptions (among large countries) of [[Switzerland]] and [[Ireland]].  In 2023, [[Finland]] joined NATO amid the Russian Federation's Special Operation in [[Ukraine]]. Ireland belongs to the [[EU Battle group]] and has participated with some NATO led missions under a UN mandate. Support for joining Nato has increased recently in the Republic of Ireland.

There have been nine rounds of expansion in NATO as of August 2023, with another round that formally admitted [[Sweden]].<ref>https://www.nato.int/cps/en/natohq/topics_52044.htm#:~:text=NATO%20was%20created%20by%2012,countries%20can%20join%20the%20Alliance.</ref>

===Soviet reaction===
 +
 +
NATO acceptance of [[Europe]]an countries led Soviet Russia in 1955 to set up a counter organization, The [[Warsaw Treaty Organization]] (or Warsaw Pact). Common defense, the ongoing MAD strategy, and economic crisis led the [[Soviet Union]] and the Warsaw Pact to its demise. NATO's transatlantic relations and prevention were key to the end of the [[Cold War]], and the beginning of an interlinking of United States and European policies, which still remains to this day.
 +
 +
===2025: Debt to GDP ratio of leading NATO members===
 +
Without cutting domestic social programs and social security, most NATO member states would struggle to continue funding the [[corrupt]] [[Zelensky regime]] in the [[NATO proxy war against Russia]], let alone provide for their own defense. As most students of [[geopolitics|international politics]] learn in their freshman year, [[military]] power is built on [[economic]] power.
 +
 +
Debt to [[GDP]] ratio of leading NATO member states:
 +
*Greece: 152.5%
 +
*Italy: 137.9%
 +
*France: 114.1%
 +
*Belgium: 106.8%
 +
*Spain: 103.5%
 +
*UK: 100%<ref>A debt-to-GDP ratio of 100% means the entire raw economic produce of a country is already owed to creditors, and cannot provide for the same year's cost of production or the consumption of the country's inhabitants. Essentially meaning the current years economic production & consumption has to be financed by piling on more debt equal to cost of one years production and consumption. </ref>
 +
*Portugal: Approximately 99%
 +
*Finland: Near 89%
 +
 +
These member states and more, would struggle to find the financing for continued [[war]] against [[Russia]], which is why they seek the [[United States]] as a "backstop" to provide "security guarantees".
