In a significant move, Britain prepares to redefine its post-Brexit relationship with the European Union by focusing on stronger trade and defence ties. On Monday, Prime Minister Keir Starmer is expected to negotiate terms that could yield economic benefits and enhance security across the continent.

Central to the new agreement is a defence and security pact aimed at facilitating British participation in a €150 billion programme to bolster Europe's defence capabilities. This strategic pivot comes amid global changes sparked by recent geopolitical events, including the war in Ukraine.

As negotiations culminate in London, discussions will address crucial issues such as reducing border checks and paperwork for UK-EU exports, and expanding youth mobility. Despite possible resistance from Brexit supporters, this reset marks a strategic effort to foster cooperation in an increasingly volatile world economy.
