Summary
UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer declared that Britain will not choose between the U.S. and the EU, pledging to strengthen ties with both as Donald Trump prepares to assume the U.S. presidency.
In a major foreign policy speech, Starmer emphasized rebuilding relations with Europe and maintaining the “special relationship” with the U.S., while urging increased European defense spending and preparing Ukraine for peace talks.
Starmer rejected past Tory policies of neglecting alliances, outlined plans for a UK-EU defense pact, and ruled out a return to freedom of movement or the EU single market.
Hey UK, they aren’t gonna take you back.
I’d love the UK to rejoin the EU one day. Obviously, participation shouldn’t be hop on / hop off but as long as all prequisites are met I would say the bigger the better.
