French President Macron Welcomes UK PM Burnham's Hint at Possible EU Rejoining

UK Prime Minister Burnham, who took office in July after Labour MPs removed Keir Starmer, suggested that rejoining the European Union could be one possible answer to Britain's future relationship with Europe. The comments were made in an interview broadcast on Wednesday. French President Emmanuel Macron responded warmly to the idea, saying 'Welcome back.' The remarks have reignited debate over the UK's long-term ties with the European bloc following Brexit.
