Navigating the Next Phase of UK-EU Ties

Join us for a timely session offering key insights into the evolving UK-EU relationship ahead of the 19 May summit. In recent months the UK has placed greater emphasis on defence and security cooperation against the backdrop of growing geopolitical tensions and shifting global security dynamics. Meanwhile, market and economic turmoil caused by US tariffs could spur both sides to take a fresh look at reducing trade barriers. This discussion will explore likely summit outcomes and how the UK and EU could deepen collaboration in this changing landscape.
