Far-right Rep Majorie Taylor Greene has introduced an amendment to the National Defense Authorisation Act that “directs the president to withdraw the US from Nato.” “They are not a reliable partner whose defense spending should be paid for by American citizens. For the better part of the last decade, Germany has contributed only around one per cent of its GDP to finance Nato obligations while the United States is paying around four per cent of our GDP to defend Nato countries,” Ms Greene said in announcing the amendment. She added that the US “has been financing and promising to defend Nato countries for decades and paying more than its fair share.” “Western European countries could and should be stepping up their financial contributions to ensure the security of Nato. Instead, they are entirely beholden to Russia and US taxpayers expected to foot the bill,” Ms Greene concluded. The Georgia congresswoman’s amendment comes the same day that President Joe Biden expressed the US’ “ironclad commitment to NATO” in a tweet amid a Nato summit in Lithuania. Earlier on Tuesday, Nato leaders wrote in a declaration that “Ukraine’s future is in NATO,” adding, “We will be in a position to extend an invitation to Ukraine to join the alliance when allies agree and conditions are met.” Read More Biden news – live: President skips Nato leadership dinner as White House blames ‘big speech’ prep Turkey's pledge of support for Sweden's NATO entry is tied to goals on security and EU membership Biden blames busy schedule for skipping Nato leadership dinner

Mark Zuckerberg showed off an impressive physique on Tuesday while training with two UFC champions, amid rumours that the Meta CEO will fight Twitter boss Elon Musk. Zuckerberg, 39, and Musk, 52, went back and forth on social media recently, agreeing to fight one another in a cage, with UFC president Dana White and boxing promoter Eddie Hearn among those to express an interest in making the contest. They are not the only personalities from the world of fighting who are keen to get involved, however. UFC middleweight champion Israel Adesanya and featherweight champion Alexander Volkanovski were pictured with Zuckerberg at a fight gym on Tuesday (11 July), three days after Volkanovski retained his title in Las Vegas. Nigerian-New Zealander Adesanya was present at the T-Mobile Arena on Saturday (8 July) to watch his Australian teammate retain the featherweight belt, as Volkanovski beat Yair Rodriguez in the UFC 290 main event. “No fugazi [fake] with Mark,” Adesanya wrote in the caption to the photo with Zuckerberg and Volkanovski. “This is serious business!!” Zuckerberg commented: “It’s an honor to train with you guys!” Zuckerberg is a keen fan of mixed martial arts and has sparred with Volkanovski before, and the American recently won multiple medals at a jiu-jitsu competition. Meanwhile, Musk – who runs Twitter as well as Tesla and SpaceX – has some experience in jiu-jitsu. Former UFC champion Georges St-Pierre recently offered to train Musk for a potential fight with Zuckerberg, rumours of which have coincided with the launch of Threads, a new Meta app that is designed to rival Twitter.
