Nepal–United Kingdom relations

This article discusses bilateral relations between Nepal and the United Kingdom. Relations between the UK and Nepal have historically been friendly and there have been close links between the Royal Families, although relations deteriorated when the King took power in 2005. A treaty of friendship was signed in 1923, which superseded the Sugauli Treaty signed in 1816. The UK is highly regarded in Nepal. This is through historical ties, development assistance and long term support in the struggle for democratic peace in Nepal. Also of note is that through the recruitment of Gurkha soldiers by the British Army since the 19th century, Nepal has had links with the United Kingdom.[1][2] The Embassy of Nepal marked 200 years of Nepal-UK ties in 2014.[3][4] The UK is Nepal’s largest bilateral aid donor.[5][6][7]
