Select Committee Inquiry
7 Nov 2024
The UK’s future relationship with the US
International Relations and Defence Committee (Select)
Not accepting submissions

The House of Lords International Relations and Defence Committee will be launching an inquiry into the future of UK-US relations.

The inquiry will assess the state of the transatlantic relationship, explore the impact a second Trump Administration may have on it (as well as the rules-based international order), and what trends in US foreign policy are likely to persist and influence the relationship beyond the next four years.

The Committee will start taking evidence on or shortly after president-elect Trump’s inauguration on 20 January 2025.
