France Boycotts NATO Meetings Over Costs
In Brussels France boycotts NATO committee meetings aimed at sharing 250000 European troops costs with the United States. Paris cites two reasons for absence: NATO commands long since voided by France and no foreign troops on French soil, with a third view claiming disinterest in spending more. Meanwhile Allies seek about 840 million in France for prior expenses after De Gaulle expelled NATO from France in 1967. The U S notes troops in Europe cut its payments gap about 2 billion yearly, prompting bipartisan Senate concern on withdrawals and cost sharing.
