Описание: The UK’s Integrated Review sets out a high level of ambition for Global Britain. Whilst the Review does not go into specifics, statements by the Prime Minister and details included in the subsequent Defence Command Paper suggest a Government desire to contribute more to the United Nations, and particularly to peacekeeping. The panel will consider what the UK is already doing, including the lessons from the deployment to Mali, and the opportunities for Global Britain to enhance its peacekeeping contributions.
