Starmer in 11th hour Brexit reset talks with Macron and Ursula von der Leyen to secure crucial deal
- On May 16, 2025, Keir Starmer engaged in urgent discussions with the European Commission President and the leader of France during the European Political Community summit held in Albania.
- The talks followed major disagreements over EU demands for lower tuition fees for students and fishing rights in British waters that threaten Starmer's Brexit reset deal.
- The reset deal aims to remove trade barriers by aligning UK and EU regulations and enhance defence cooperation, following recent UK trade agreements with India and the US.
- Starmer described Monday's London summit as "an important moment for our country" and expressed optimism despite ongoing discussions and no final agreement yet.
- The outcome will shape UK-EU relations and could deliver economic growth but a deadlock on key issues poses risks to securing the Brexit reset deal.
