Debate

G7 and NATO Summits

Contribution

Let me turn to the G7 summit, where, again, my priority was to deliver in the national interest. Again, I can report some significant progress. Leaders agreed to take decisive action on illegal migration, following the UK’s lead in using hard-headed measures such as sanctions. We marked an export contract with Canada worth over £500 million, creating jobs here at home. We secured Canada’s agreement to ratify Britain’s entry to the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership—a trading bloc worth $12 trillion.
