The UK and European Union have reached a new deal setting out post-Brexit relations on areas including fishing rights, trade, energy, and defense.
UK Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer – who has made the Brexit reset a centerpiece of his administration – said Monday’s summit marks a “new era” of relations with the bloc, adding that it is about “moving on from stale old debates” and “looking forward, not backwards”.
Some issues have proven thornier than others, with fishing rights understood to have been a key stumbling block for negotiators that was only solved in the early hours of the morning, the Independent said.
