Brexit: The UK's Departure from the EU
What you need to know
After months of negotiations, the UK and the European Union (EU) finally reached an agreement on the terms of the UK's withdrawal from the EU. On January 1, 2021, the UK officially left the EU, marking the end of nearly 50 years of membership in the bloc.
The UK's departure from the EU has been a controversial topic, with both supporters and opponents of Brexit expressing strong views. However, now that the UK has left the EU, it is important for everyone to understand the implications of this change.
Here are some key things to know about the UK leaving the EU:
- The UK is now an independent country, no longer subject to EU laws and regulations.
- The UK is no longer a member of the EU single market or customs union, which means that there may be new tariffs and other barriers to trade between the UK and EU countries.
- The UK is no longer a member of the EU free movement area, which means that EU citizens will need visas to enter the UK, and UK citizens will need visas to enter EU countries.
The UK's departure from the EU is a major change, and it is still too early to say what the long-term effects will be. However, it is important for everyone to be aware of the key changes that have been made, and to be prepared for the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead.
