A Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between UK and Dutch Defence Ministers was signed on 26 January at Tidworth army camp in southern England. The bilateral partnership will be aimed at co-operation during crisis management operations. 11 (NL) Airmobile Brigade and 24 (UK) Airmobile Brigade will exercise together more frequently. The agreement is believed to be vital to increasing the chances of UK defence companies selling equipment to the Netherlands army.
