This means that Phase 2 of the negotiations can begin. In Phase 2, the EU and the UK continue to negotiate the Withdrawal Agreement. But they also begin to discuss a transition period and explore their future relationship. The Declaration on the Future Relationship between the European Union and the United Kingdom, also known as the Political Declaration, is a non-binding declaration negotiated and signed in conjunction with the binding and broader Withdrawal Agreement in the context of the Withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union (EU), colloquially known as Brexit, and the planned end of the transition period. The BRITISH Parliament passes a law obliging the UK government to request a delay to Brexit if there is no agreement with the EU by 19 October 2019. The most significant overall difference between the October 2019 proposals and those set out in the November 2018 no-sale agreement is that the previous “backstop” maintained a much more comprehensive and comprehensive set of EU-UK trade relations through a planned customs territory between the UK and the EU (although this would not have prevented further obstacles to economic relations, since it did not cover trade in services. free movement of persons/workers, movement of capital, transport services, etc.). On 22nd October the British Parliament agreed to review the Brexit legislation. But he decided it needed longer than the British Prime Minister had proposed.
This means that a withdrawal with an agreement on the desired Brexit date of 31 October is no longer possible. The Brexit deal will not come into force until Brexit legislation is passed by the UK Parliament. Following an unprecedented vote on 4 December 2018, MEPs decided that the UK government was flouting Parliament for refusing to give Parliament the full legal opinion it had been given on the impact of the proposed withdrawal conditions. [29] The main point of the discussion concerned the legal effect of the “backstop” agreement for Northern Ireland, the Republic of Ireland and the rest of the UNITED Kingdom with regard to the customs border between the EU and the United Kingdom and its impact on the Good Friday Agreement, which had led to an end to the unrest in Northern Ireland. and, in particular, whether the UK would be safe to leave the EU in a practical sense in accordance with the draft proposals. The Brexit Withdrawal Agreement, officially titled the Agreement on the Withdrawal of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland from the European Union and the European Atomic Energy Community[3][4], is an agreement between the European Union (EU), Euratom and the United Kingdom (UK)[5], signed on 24 January 2020, which sets out the conditions for the United Kingdom`s withdrawal from the EU and Euratom. The text of the treaty was published on 17 October 2019[6] and is a renegotiated version of an agreement published six months earlier. The previous version of the Withdrawal Agreement was rejected three times by the House of Commons, leading Queen Elizabeth II to accept Theresa May`s resignation as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom and to appoint Boris Johnson as the new Prime Minister on 24 July 2019.
