EU member states are hoping negotiations on a security pact with the UK will continue apace so that it can be the main deliverable when leaders gather for a summit on 19 May, multiple sources told Euronews on Wednesday.
Striking a security pact would allow Britain to take part in joint procurement for military capabilities alongside EU member states, and enable the bloc's countries to procure British-made military equipment through a new €150 billion European instrument to ramp up defence spending.
