Starmer to join Macron on Armistice Day in Paris to show European solidarity
Briefly

"The visit will have a symbolic element with Starmer becoming the first UK leader to attend France's national commemoration event since Winston Churchill in 1944."
"Talks between the two leaders would reflect on the close bonds between the two countries, many forged and cemented by the sacrifice of British and French soldiers on the frontline."
"Starmer and Reeves are planning to set out a path on how the UK can reach the 2.5% of GDP defence spending target for Nato member states."
"Trump has previously urged Nato allies to spend 3%, a marked increase from the current UK level, stating: '2% is the steal of the century.'"
