Rishi Sunak struck a multi-year deal with Emmanuel Macron to curb cross-Channel immigration in small boats, as the two former investment bankers sought to turn the page on years of Anglo-French acrimony.
The pair appears to have moved away from previous blame games.
The agreement was part of the 2018 Sandhurst treaty, whereby the two powers agreed to meet annually to share their views to secure borders and broker how much the UK should contribute each year. A French official in Macron’s office said earlier this week that a multi-year framework would be more efficient, allowing France to plan in advance its ground forces.
