European Union: Military Alliances
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what assessment he has made of the potential impact of the proposed Security Pact with the European Union on NATO.
Answered by Luke Pollard
The Government has been clear about our commitment to negotiate an ambitious Security and Defence Partnership with the EU to strengthen European security and reinforce NATO. Talks are ongoing, and no agreements have been reached. I hope the hon. Member will understand that we will not provide a running commentary on their substance.
