Pakistan has decided to increase its defense spending by 17% which will be about 5 billion more a year because security is its top priority. Over 3,400 lives have been taken in Pakistan in the past three years and the deaths are linked to Taliban militants. Over 90 people were killed last week alone in Pakistan. The increase in defense spending will be used to combat militants.
