Stalemate in Brexit Talks

This chapter examines the stalemate in the Brexit negotiations as the eighth round begins in Brussels, with key issues like fisheries rights and Northern Ireland’s border arrangements unresolved. It discusses the frustrations from both sides, particularly the UK's new legislation that may undermine the withdrawal agreement and provoke a no-deal scenario. The chapter also highlights international concerns, especially from the United States regarding the Good Friday Agreement, and the growing urgency for a resolution as deadlines loom.
