Brexit Negotiations: UK PM Theresa May Speech - Article 50
|“These will be very complex negotiations”
“We have been able to have a considerable amount of preparation during the previous months so we can face negotiations and get the best-possible deal for the UK”
“We don’t yet know how the EU council will frame the negotiations”
“The point about seeking a comprehensive free-trade agreement is that being a EU-member we already have a deal, we are not seeking for a new one”
“It’s in the interest of everyone around the world that we promote free-trade everywhere, not only in the UK and the EU”
Key Notes
First EU response to article 50
takes tough line on transitional deal “Britain will not be given a free trade deal by the EU in the next two years, and a transition arrangement to cushion the UK’s exit after 2019 can last no longer than three years, a European parliament resolution has vowed, in the first official response by the EU institutions to the triggering of article 50 by Theresa May.”
