From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Trinity House Agreement (German: Trinity-House-Vereinbarung) was signed by the German Defense Minister, Boris Pistorius, and the British Secretary of State for Defence, John Healey, in London on October 23, 2024, to strengthen bilateral security cooperation and to "deepen defence cooperation across all domains".[1] It is named after Trinity House, the place of the signing. It sets the course for closer cooperation in the defense and security policy of both countries and is intended to be an expression of the UK's realignment with Europe.[2][3][4][5][6]
