Military Aid
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, which countries received training from the armed forces in (a) 2023-24 and (b) 2024-25; and which branch of the armed forces was responsible for delivering that training.
Answered by Luke Pollard
The UK Armed Forces provided various forms of military training to around 120 countries in 2023-24 and 140 countries in 2024-25. Our training provision is tailored to the specific needs of Allies and partners, spanning several branches across the Services to provide the relevant expertise needed. In the interests of national security and upholding trust and confidentiality with our international partnerships, it is not appropriate to provide a detailed breakdown of these countries, or the nature of that training. All training is carried out in adherence to International Humanitarian Law.
