European Allies: Trade Talks

european allies: We're going to do a very big trade deal bigger than we've ever had with the U.K., Trump said, according to The Japan Times. At some point, they won't have the obstacle of they won't have the anchor around their ankle, because that's what they had. Johnson, who faces a delicate task of assuaging European allies while not angering Trump at a Group of Seven summit in France, said trade talks with the United States would be tough but there were huge opportunities for British businesses in the U.S. market. ; Speaking to reporters with Johnson ahead of a trade-focused bilateral meeting, Trump said Britain's membership of the EU had been a drag on efforts to forge closer trade ties. So, we're going to have some very good trade talks and big numbers. Opponents fear Brexit will make Britain poorer and divide the West as it grapples with both Trump's unconventional presidency and growing assertiveness from Russia and China. With less than three months until an Oct. 31 deadline, it is still totally unclear, how, when or even whether Britain will leave the EU. The uncertainty around Brexit, the United Kingdom's most significant political and economic post-war move, has left allies and investors aghast and roiled markets. (news.financializer.com).
