BRUSSELS (Reuters) – The European Parliament has voted in favour of the post-Brexit trade deal between Britain and the European Union, leading lawmaker Guy Verhofstadt said on Wednesday.
“The @Europarl_EN approves the EU – UK trade & cooperation agreement! The first trade deal in history to put up barriers & remove freedoms? A failure for both sides, but better than nothing,” the former Belgian prime minister said in a tweet.
