Britain says EU is offering "relatively low quality" trade agreement
  • Country:
  • United Kingdom

The European Union is offering Britain a "relatively low quality" trade agreement, chief British negotiator David Frost said in a letter to his European Union counterpart Michel Barnier on Tuesday.

"Overall, at this moment in negotiations, what is on offer is not a fair free-trade relationship between close economic partners, but a relatively low-quality trade agreement coming with unprecedented EU oversight of our laws and institutions," Frost said in the letter published on the government's website.
