The US says the UK should boost defence spending to 5% of GDP. I ask Bloomberg’s Will Wilkes why Germany’s govt is already saying yes to 5%. Can they actually afford it? Will it make Trump happy? Or will the U.S. just ask for more?

Black Sea maritime ceasefire announced. US promises to enhance Russia’s access to payment systems (presumably easing sanctions). The word Ukraine is mentioned once, towards the end.

Trump and Putin agree bilaterally on an energy and infrastructure ceasefire for Ukraine and negotiations on next steps to be held “immediately in the Middle East”.

Today’s papers across the political spectrum say Starmer’s meeting with Trump was a success. “Charmer Starmer”, “Keir’s Trump card”, “Trump backs Great Trade Deal for Brexit Britain”, “What An Unlikely Bromance!”, & less catchy but significant “Trump backs Starmer on Chagos”

Talked to @Bloomberg about US-Russia talks - there are many good reasons for bilateral talks between these two nuclear powers - but the future of European security will inevitably depend on European decisions too. Watch 25 mins in here
