The UK and the EU announce new deals and renew ties, 5 years after Brexit
- On May 19, 2025, UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer and EU leaders signed new agreements in London to reset ties five years after Brexit.
- The reset followed years of tensions and late-night talks to resolve disputes on defense, trade, fishing rights, and migration limits.
- The agreements include a 12-year extension allowing EU fishing in UK waters, easing of border checks on food, and a new defense partnership.
- Starmer said the deals bring “real, tangible benefits” like lower bills and better security, while critics called it a “surrender” betraying Brexit.
- The reset may ease trade and security cooperation but faces opposition from pro-Brexit parties and risks from unresolved disputes and US reactions.
