New momentum, acceleration, punch. You can choose the image you want, but what is certain is that the negotiations on the future commercial relationship between the United Kingdom and the European Union have so far yielded little. And if we want to avoid a lack of agreement at the end of the year, the next few weeks will be decisive. Beyond the postures, everyone needs an agreement on the subjects that are problematic. Failure could cost the protagonists dearly, especially after the economic crisis born of the Covid-19 pandemic. Could the path chosen by the United Kingdom lead to not so splendid isolation? This is the question of the day.
