On 19 May 2025, the British government and the EU struck a “reset” deal to mark a new start for a post-Brexit era of bilateral cooperation. This agreement rests on three pillars: foreign and security policy, fisheries, and greater mobility for young people.

Inventing a new internationalism which is attuned to the realities of the world is more than ever necessary if Europe is to confront the huge challenges posed by climate change, the nuclear arms race and militarised artificial intelligence.
