The Special (Trade) Relationship: U.S.-UK Negotiations

Listen "The Special (Trade) Relationship: U.S.-UK Negotiations"

Episode Synopsis


Britain’s exit from the European Union (“Brexit”) in January 2020 put the country back in charge of its trade policy. Now, it must settle the terms of its future trading relationship with the EU by the end of this year and decide whether and how to pursue its own trade agreements with non-EU countries. Trade negotiations between the U.S. and UK launched in May 2020. Dr. Lorand Bartels and Dr. Kyle Handley discuss the legal and economic implications of the uncertainty of the final EU-UK trading relationship on ongoing U.S.-UK trade negotiations as well as the scope and impact of a potential deal.

Featuring:
Lorand Bartels, Reader in International Law in the Faculty of Law and a Fellow of Trinity Hall, University of Cambridge
Kyle Handley, Professor of Business Economics and Public Policy, University of Michigan

Moderator:
Warren Maruyama, Partner, Hogan Lovells
