France, April 23 -- After months of wrangling, France and the UK have agreed to renew the Sandhurst Treaty, first signed in 2018 and extended in 2023, which sets the UK's commitment to funding law enforcement operations in France to stop would-be asylum seekers from heading out into the Channel in small boats to reach the UK.
