United Kingdom Prime Minister David Cameron is to host a summit with leaders of Nordic and Baltic countries in January 2011, an unusual move which Downing Street billed as an opportunity to exchange ideas on issues such as the green economy, social cohesion and gender equality.

Mr Cameron’s spokeswoman insisted the summit was not an attempt by Britain to forge a new northern alliance in the European Union of predominantly liberal, atlanticist countries, some of which have high levels of euroscepticism.
