POSC 230 1. Pick a member state of NATO other than the United States. Make sure it is a member state and not just a partner country. Provide the name of your chosen country. (1 point)  The Netherlands 2. When did your selected member country join NATO? (1 point)  The Netherlands joined NATO in 1948. 3. Get a sense of how much your member country contributes to NATO activities. Include info on the following two aspects: a. Indirect funding o Total defense expenditures in 2019 (estimates are in USD (US dollars), current prices). Hint - open pdf or Excel file, Table 2 (1 point)  While you now know what your member country pays total on its defense, each member is supposed to put 2% of their GDP into defense spending. How does your country measure up for 2019 estimates? Same link as A but see Table 3. (1 point)  In 2019e, The Netherlands Defense Expenditure estimated Price and Exchange rate was at $12,478 M. The Share of the Real GDP was 1.36%, which again is an estimated number. While The Netherlands falls short of 2%, the estimate for 2019 was the highest percentage, indicating a positive incline for future GDP defensive spending. The reality unfortunately does not account for the COVID-19 pandemic that did occur from 2019- 2021, and the global showdown that occurred. b. Direct funding into NATO's budget (is a percentage) for 2021-2024 (1 point)  The Netherlands’ direct funding into the NATO budget for 2021-2024 is 3.4193%.
