Ben Wallace to set out how British troops can strengthen border as thousands of migrants try to enter EU
Britain’s defence minister will visit Poland on Thursday hoping to set out how UK troops can help strengthen the country’s border with Belarus at a time when thousands of migrants are trying to cross into the EU.
The mission comes two days after Ben Wallace visited Ukraine, where the two countries finalised an arms deal, and underlines the UK’s post-Brexit willingness to reach defence agreements with countries near Russia’s borders.
