UK Defence Secretary Wes Streeting and German Defence Minister Boris Pistorius held the second Defence Ministerial Council under the Trinity House Agreement on 2 November 2026, according to a joint statement published by the UK Ministry of Defence. The two governments said they had made significant progress in strengthening defence cooperation in the two years since the agreement was signed.

The ministers reaffirmed support for Ukraine against Russia's invasion and said the two countries, as co-chairs of the Ukraine Defence Contact Group, would keep working with Ukraine and international partners to ensure its Armed Forces receive the support they need. They also said they would continue developing security guarantees for implementation after hostilities cease and when conditions are right.

The statement noted progress on a joint project to develop Deep Precision Strike capabilities with ranges over 2,000 km, to be delivered within the decade, and said cooperation would expand in areas including artificial intelligence, space and uncrewed systems. The ministers said they had directed their teams to maintain momentum through 2027, with a continued focus on delivery and tangible outcomes.
