The draft U.K.-EU agreement is one of several being drawn up ahead of a May 19 summit.
Britain and the European Union are set to sign a formal declaration committing to “free and open trade” in defiance of Donald Trump’s tariff agenda.
A leaked draft seen by POLITICO promises a “new strategic partnership” between London and Brussels based on “maintaining global economic stability and our mutual commitment to free and open trade.”
It comes as Keir Starmer’s U.K. government is locked in negotiations with the Trump administration to try to get a carve-out from the U.S. president’s new tariffs.
One more agreement that wouldn’t have been necessary before Brexit.
But also kind of amazing that the US fucked up so bad that the EU is beginning to forgive the UK for the slap in the face of leaving.
I think it is more the UK which appears weak for coming crawling back to the EU.
We were dumb as shit for leaving. The end.
It’s ok mate, we voted for the stupidest Hitler. Twice.
