I am arriving in the United Kingdom for a State Visit, followed by a Franco-British summit.

An important moment for our two nations.

The United Kingdom is a strategic partner, an ally, a friend. Our bond is longstanding, forged by History and strengthened by trust.

Together, we will address the major challenges of our time: security, defence, nuclear energy, space, innovation, artificial intelligence, migration, and culture. These are all areas in which we seek to act together and deepen our cooperation in a concrete, effective, and lasting way.

This is also a significant moment for our Europe.

The willingness expressed by the United Kingdom to strengthen ties with the European Union is a powerful signal — one that I welcome. It commits us collectively to explore new means of cooperation that respect our mutual interests.

There is so much we can build together: for the stability of our continent, for our shared prosperity and competitiveness, and for the protection of our democracies.

Our joint efforts to support Ukraine — where the security of our continent is at stake — our industrial projects with EDF, our cooperation in space and joint military work are all concrete examples that show how vibrant and forward-looking our partnership is.

French and British: two free and proud peoples who never give up.

That is what unites us, beyond any official texts. That is what binds us.

[The Prince and Princess of Wales @KensingtonRoyal]

I spoke to @BethRigby about the situation in #Iran. Military action is not the solution to eliminate the threat of the Iranian nuclear programme.

We should be focused on diplomatic efforts to find a path towards de-escalation.
