Former British Prime Minister Keir Starmer is interested in becoming NATO secretary-general, a position expected to open in 2028, The Observer reports. The appointment would require the support of the UK government.
The Observer reported Sunday that former UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer is interested in the position of NATO secretary-general, a role that will become vacant in 2028 when the current term ends. The report comes just days after Starmer resigned as Labour leader and prime minister amid an internal party collapse. The position would require backing from the UK government, which Starmer recently left. Starmer has not publicly commented on the report. The current NATO secretary-general is Jens Stoltenberg, whose term runs until 2028.
