US EditionUK and EU in last-minute deal talks ahead of summit
- On Monday, Prime Minister Keir Starmer hosted a landmark gathering of UK and EU leaders in London to negotiate a comprehensive post-Brexit agreement addressing trade, security, and ongoing cooperation.

- The summit and deal signal a strategic reset in UK-EU relations, aiming to strengthen economic ties and security partnerships despite domestic controversy and remaining uncertainties.
