I think you’re missing a lot of the context here.

The collective agreement means that 3.5% of GDP will be spent on defense and 1.5% on defense related measures (cybersecurity, infrastructure security etc.). It applies to all countries in the alliance, including the US.

I am not saying increasing defence spending is a good thing, just that you or the headlines have misinterpreted the agreement.
