Sir Keir Starmer

Labour — Holborn and St Pancras

Speaking in the House of Commons on 26 June 2025

Debate

G7 and NATO Summits

Contribution

As the hon. Gentleman will know, when we presented the strategic defence review, we had already set out the path to 2.5% and the ambition for 3%. I think it is right that all NATO allies have now agreed the 5% by 2035, subject, of course, to review in 2029 of both the trajectory and balance. The reason for that, as he will understand, is that NATO itself is reviewing its capabilities in 2029, and the reviews will therefore coincide.
