240828. Starmers Berlin Visit. Whats on the Agenda.

() UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer is currently in Berlin for his first bilateral trip since taking office, meeting with German Chancellor Olaf Scholz on Wednesday, August 28, 2024. The visit aims to strengthen UK-Germany relations and address several key topics:

() Bilateral Discussions The two leaders will hold talks focusing on: Bilateral and foreign policy issues European policy matters Economic policy discussions New UK-Germany Partnership A central agenda item is the discussion of a new partnership between the UK and Germany. This aligns with Starmer's pledge to rebuild trust with European allies, which was damaged in the aftermath of Brexit.

() Economic Cooperation The summit aims to boost business and trade relations between the two countries. This focus on economic ties is likely part of Starmer's broader strategy to improve the UK's economic situation.

() Foreign Policy and Security Other probable topics of discussion include: Tackling illegal migration Military support for Ukraine Potential negotiation of a new security pact with the European Union

() Symbolic Significance Starmer will be welcomed with military honors in Berlin, underscoring the diplomatic importance of this visit. The trip serves as an opportunity for Starmer to present his vision for the UK's role in Europe and to "reset relationships" with European partners. This visit to Germany marks an important step in Starmer's foreign policy approach, emphasizing closer cooperation with European allies while maintaining the UK's post-Brexit position outside the EU's single market and customs union.
