Key takeaways
“In case of risk of unfair trade distortion, the EU can slap interim protective measures in 15 days at the earliest after notifying the UK.”
“Neither the EU nor the UK should reduce environmental protections, the UK will implement a carbon pricing system as least as good as the EU one.”
“Trade deal with Britain envisages reciprocal access to fishing waters, annual talks to end by December 10 on fishing opportunities for the following year.”
