The UK is one of only a handful of nations that meets the 2% target, and we remain the largest European Defence spender in NATO. The Integrated Review will consider all aspects of international policy from defence to diplomacy and development. It is too early to discuss specifics, but I can assure you that this country will maintain the strength of our world class Armed Forces.</p> answering member constituency Wyre and Preston North answering member printed Mr Ben Wallace question first answered 09/07/2020 06:55:42 answering member 1539 label Biography information for Mr Ben Wallace
