Burnham meets Macron in first bilateral talks at Downing Street

UK Mayor Andy Burnham held his first bilateral talks with French President Emmanuel Macron at Downing Street, discussing small boats, defence, and Ukraine. The meeting signals a potential shift in UK-EU engagement under Burnham's leadership, though specifics remain undisclosed. This is notable as Burnham, a Labour figure, engages directly in foreign policy, possibly indicating a more cooperative UK-EU posture.
