The brexit world

For months, the sword of Damocles of a trade war has been hanging over relations between the EU and the United Kingdom, which are still negotiating changes to the customs system imposed on Northern Ireland by the Brexit treaty, which Prime Minister Boris Johnson is threatening to break.

During 2020, Johnson constantly threatened to unilaterally break the agreements on this troubled territory. And a few months ago he resurrected the possibility, citing the tension it had caused in the territory. And the EU has made it clear that, if it gets to that point, relations between London and Brussels would blow up completely.

However, analysts believe that this threat is very significant in itself. “For a long time, these discussions could be ignored as mere political posturing and noise. But threatening to tear up the trade deal is an escalation of rhetoric and sterling should take a hit as a result,” they warn from Nomura.
