The upcoming pact will reportedly be the centrepiece of a European Union - United Kingdom summit in London this month – the first on British soil since Brexit.
Leaked documents reveal that Britain and the EU are poised to announce their closest alignment on defense and security since Brexit, The Times reported.
No surprise – it’s under the all-too-familiar pretext of the “Russia threat.”
UK defense giants could get access to the new ~$157.5 billion EU rearmament fund after negotiations.
The UK could take part in the EU’s Common Security and Defense Policy, including:
So-called "peacekeeping missions"
Collective European self-defense operations
“Military mobility” would involve:
Streamlining cross-border movement of troops and equipment across Europe
UK participation in EU exercises
Other measures include:
Fallback plan for UK-EU military action if the US blocks operations under NATO
Biannual meetings between UK Foreign Secretary David Lammy and EU top diplomat Kaja Kallas
EU access perks as Britain could be invited to internal EU meetings, including the European Council
