Breaking News: German President Warns UK Amid Post-Brexit Tensions
German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier has issued a warning to the UK, urging it not to dwell on past feelings of disappointment and uncertainty following Brexit. Steinmeier made the comments during a state visit to the UK, where he met with King Charles III and Queen Camilla, and addressed MPs and peers in Parliament.
Steinmeier drew a parallel between the UK's post-Brexit ties with Germany and the recent reunion of the Oasis brothers, citing the band's famous song "Don't Look Back in Anger." He emphasized that both sides had chosen to move forward, rather than getting stuck in negative emotions.
The German President's comments come as part of a wider effort to strengthen ties between the UK and Germany. Steinmeier's visit to the UK is the first by a German leader in 27 years, and he has been meeting with British officials to discuss a range of issues, including trade and security.
Steinmeier's visit has been marked by a series of cultural events, including a visit to the VA Museum's David Bowie Centre in Berlin. The President has been joined by his wife, Elke Budenbender, and UK Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy.
This is a developing story, with further updates expected as Steinmeier's visit continues.
