Secretary of State Rex Tillerson on Friday reportedly gave NATO allies two months to either meet the group’s defense budget guidelines or offer up a schedule for doing so.

"Allies that do not have a concrete plan to spend 2 percent of [gross domestic product] on defense by 2024 need to establish one now. Allies that have a plan to reach the 2 percent guideline need to accelerate efforts and show results," Tillerson said in Brussels, according to The Associated Press.

It was Tillerson’s first meeting with his counterparts from NATO, which President Trump has repeatedly faulted for failing to live up to its defense spending commitments.
