Britain says talks to join EU defence fund have broken down
LONDON/BRUSSELS () -Britain said on Friday that talks to join the European Union's defence fund SAFE had broken down, in a major setback to a much-vaunted post-Brexit reset of relations aimed at strengthening the continent's defence. Prime Minister Keir Starmer had hailed a "new era" in Britain's relationship with the EU in May, with an agreement to reset defence and trade ties that allowed Britain to negotiate to join the a 150 billion euro ($173 billion) fund to rearm Europe.
