What happened: The EU has called for a swift revival of negotiations with the UK to finalise a reset deal on issues like tuition fees for EU citizens and food safety rules. Talks risk collapsing ahead of a planned July summit.
Why it matters:
- A failure to reach agreement could disrupt cooperation on education and trade standards.
- Both UK and EU citizens and businesses could face uncertainty and new barriers.
MNN Take: The EU wants both sides to accelerate discussions to secure a deal that will govern future relations, aiming to avoid last-minute breakdowns that could harm cross-border ties.
