Pete Hegseth has warned Europe is facing "an invasion of dangerous ideologies" arriving by sea, as he linked immigration to the legacy of the D-Day landings in Normandy.

The US defence secretary was speaking at the Normandy American Cemetery in northwestern France during commemorations for the 82nd anniversary of the 6 June 1944 landings, when US and Allied forces crossed the English Channel to launch the liberation of western Europe from Nazi occupation.
