PM warns of 'growing threats' as he announces defence spending increase.
Rishi Sunak is to increase UK defence spending to 2.5% of GDP by 2030, as he warned Europe is at a "turning point" in the face of the growing threats from Russia, Iran and China.
The commitment amounts to an additional £75bn in funding over the next six years.
Speaking in Poland, the prime minister said the additional funding represents the "biggest strengthening of our national defence in a generation to meet the challenge of an increasingly dangerous world".
