EU and UK 'reach deal' to reset ties ahead of key London summit
Briefly

EU and UK negotiators have finalized an agreement aimed at resetting relations after Brexit, highlighted by a London summit hosted by Prime Minister Keir Starmer. Key components include a Security and Defence Partnership, solidarity statement, and a Common Understanding covering trade, fishing rights, and youth mobility. European fishermen will retain access to UK waters for 12 years post-2026 in exchange for reducing food import barriers. Despite concerns over youth mobility potentially reinstating free movement, negotiators agreed on general terms keeping specifics open for future discussion.
Under the final agreement, Britain will maintain access to its waters for European fishermen for 12 years after its current deal expires in 2026, ensuring cooperation while easing import regulations.
A trio of key documents has been drafted to redefine EU-UK relations, highlighting security, solidarity, and mobility, vital for both parties moving forward post-Brexit.
