The United Kingdom and Belgium are close neighbours, like-minded partners and Allies committed to working together to promote our common interests. Today, we deepen our bilateral cooperation and friendship, within the framework of the EU-UK Trade and Cooperation Agreement (TCA) and the Renewed Agenda for European Union – United Kingdom Cooperation (‘the Renewed Agenda’ agreed 19 May 2025).

Today, I had the privilege of visiting one of Microsoft’s data centers in Belgium. These facilities form the beating heart of our digital economy, powering innovation, driving growth and increasing connectivity across every sector.
