About this report
A high-level EU-UK defence summit is scheduled for May 19, 2025 in London, marking the first such meeting since Brexit and expected to formalize a new era of security cooperation between Britain and the European Union. Both sides have billed the summit as a “defence and security partnership” meeting focused on aligning efforts to strengthen Europe’s defence capabilities amidst the war in Ukraine and heightened threats.
European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen and UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer (whose pro-EU stance helped pave the way for this summit) will headline the gathering, alongside defence ministers and military chiefs from key EU states and Britain.
