Germany is assuming that Keir Starmer will attend a multilateral meeting in Berlin on Wednesday, a government spokesperson said on Monday, after the British Prime Minister said he would resign.
"The planned meeting in the E5 format is part of the preparations for the NATO summit, and we expect it to go ahead as planned," the spokesperson said at a regular government press conference, referring to the European Group of Five, consisting of Britain, France, Germany, Italy and Poland.
Berlin had found Starmer to be a reliable and close partner on foreign policy issues, particularly those relating to Ukraine, he added, and was looking forward to working closely with the future Prime Minister.
