UK to Sign Historic Defense Pact with Germany, Launching Project Asgard for Joint NATO Exercises in Estonia and Lithuania
Oct 20, 2024, 02:00 PM
The United Kingdom is poised to sign a significant defense agreement with Germany this week, marking a pivotal moment in military collaboration between the two nations. This pact is described as the most important bilateral deal since the Lancaster House agreement between the UK and France, established during David Cameron's tenure. The agreement aims to enhance long-range missile capabilities and will facilitate joint military exercises on NATO's eastern border with Russia, particularly in Estonia and Lithuania. Additionally, the UK is seeking to advance its hypersonic strike capabilities and has announced a key role in developing these long-range missile systems alongside European allies. This initiative is part of a broader strategy, referred to as 'Project Asgard', to prepare British troops for modern warfare.
