The Europe/UK borrowing started in the first half of 2019:

Berkshire has hired banks to manage a benchmark sale of 20- and 30-year bonds in euros, as well as in pounds, Bloomberg News reported Tuesday, citing a person familiar with the matter. It would be the Omaha, Nebraska-based company’s first euro-denominated bond deal since 2017 and the first time it’s ever sold debt in pounds

Berkshire borrowed another 600M euros last week:

The acquisition target could be GlaxoSmithKlein, Reckitt Benckiser, the mining companies BHP and Glencore, or something else
