British and French leaders aim to deepen cooperation in addressing terrorism and the migration crisis at a bilateral summit near London Thursday, as Britain tries to strengthen ties before leaving the European Union next year. Prime Minister Theresa May will meet President Emmanuel Macron on his first official trip across the Channel at an army base close to the capital, with an agenda intended to “reflect the broadness of the UK-France relationship,” British officials said.
