UK: MoD Strategic Defence Review outlined

On July 07, the Defence Secretary Bob Ainsworth announced that a process for undertaking a Strategic Defence Review in the next parliament has been set out.

The purpose is to examine, among others, the lessons learned from recent operations; the changing character of conflict; the requirements on and aspirations of the British Armed Forces.
