This is the text of a speech delivered at the Coppieters Foundation dinner debate on 13 April 2018 in Landshut by Dr Anthony Soares, the Deputy Director at the Centre for Cross Border Studies (CCBS).
Dr. Soares, expresses concerns over the many unknowns and uncertainties around the negotiations over the UK’s withdrawal from and future relationship with the European Union progress – too slowly for some, all too quickly for others. Some of the uncertainties include what Brexit may mean for the UK’s constitutional arrangements, how it may impact on our ability to undertake cross-border cooperation and regional development, what it could mean for the mobility of a range of citizens and, of course, how we may in future trade with each other and how that will affect our economies.
He addresses this and other issues, like the impact of brexit in The Good Friday peace agreement in this paper.
