UK Defence Minister: Britain Must Prepare For War In 3-5 Years
Britain must prepare for war within three to five years, warns UK Armed Forces Minister James Heappey. He calls for accelerated defence spending to 3% of GDP by 2029, citing the growing Russian threat and lessons from Ukraine. However, Defence Secretary John Healey reiterates the commitment to 3.5% by 2035, leading to concerns about a 'say-do gap' in national security readiness.
