EU and UK agree trade deal
On Christmas Eve, the UK and the European Union (EU) finally reached an agreement on how the two sides would work together after Brexit.
_____________________
On 23 June 2016, the UK voted for “Brexit”–to leave the EU. The EU is a group of 27 countries that trade together and follow some of the same rules. The UK officially left the EU on 31 January 2020. Since then, the two sides have been trying to work out exactly how to work and trade together. Trade refers to how countries buy and sell goods and services to each other. An agreement was reached just days before the deadline of 31 December 2020. The document setting out the deal is more than 1,200 pages long.
______________________
An important part of the agreement is that there will be no new charges (known as tariffs) imposed on goods being traded. Nor will there be a limit on how much can be traded. However, UK businesses selling goods to EU countries will need to fill in extra paperwork to prove their products follow EU rules.
_______________________
Previously, anyone from the UK could live, work and study anywhere in the EU. Under the new arrangement, people from the UK will need a visa to stay in the EU for longer than 90 days in total during a 180-day period. A visa is an official document that allows someone to enter or leave a country.
_______________________
One of the major problems in the discussions was around fishing rights –how many EU boats can fish in UK waters and what they are allowed to catch. It was agreed that up until 2026, the UK would slowly regain a greater share of the fish caught in British waters. After that, the UK can choose to ban EU boats, and in return, the EU can impose new charges on British fish.
___________________
Prime Minister Boris Johnson said the trade deal made the UK a “newly and truly independent nation”. President of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen said, “ now have a fair and balanced agreement with the UK... Europe is now moving on.”
