Luxembourg: Military Alliances
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what steps he is taking to improve (a) military and (b) other defence cooperation with Luxembourg.
Answered by Al Carns
The UK continues to strengthen its defence relationship with Luxembourg, both bilaterally and through multilateral frameworks, particularly NATO. Our respective Chiefs of Defence have met in the context of wider NATO engagements to discuss and enhance support for the Alliance’s collective defence and deterrence objectives. These meetings have also contributed to broader efforts to strengthen European defence. Most recently, in September, Luxembourg’s Minister of Defence, Yuriko Backes, was invited to attend the Defence and Security Equipment International (DSEI) exhibition, where she was hosted by Defence Minister Lord Coaker.
