As per news report of BBC, in his first foreign policy speech, the PM said the closer economic ties of the previous decade had been "naïve". He said the UK now needed to replace wishful thinking with "robust pragmatism" towards competitors. But he warned against "Cold War rhetoric", adding that China's global significance could not be ignored. Mr Sunak has faced pressure from Tory backbenchers to toughen the UK's stance on China since he took over as Tory leader and UK prime minister last month.
