We examine the impact of NATO membership on military expenditures among countries that are closely linked by the timing of their accession to the alliance. The nations analyzed are the Visegrad, the Baltic, and the Adriatic countries. We conclude that a commitment to join NATO has an impact on a country's military expenditure level—it increases up to the membership point, and then starts to decline. However, on average, none of the country groups that joined NATO reached the informal guideline of military expenditures at 2 percent of GDP
