Raab says UK can resolve Brexit

Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab said he’s “confident” the UK will be able to resolve Brexit issues relating to Northern
Ireland and played down fears Britain’s split from the European Union will sour relations with US President-elect Joe Biden.
Raab said Boris Johnson’s government has reassured Biden’s team the UK has “no intention of imperiling” Ireland’s peace process and the Good Friday agreement, and has committed not to put up any infrastructure on the border between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland. He said he’s hopeful a trade agreement can be struck with the EU this week — though he reiterated that key differences remain on fisheries and regulations.
“What the Americans will be looking for will be the opportunities of the future,” Raab told the BBC, noting the Brexit transition period will have ended by the time Biden takes office in
January. “They’re looking at
opportunities for multilateral cooperation on Covid, on counter-terrorism, cyber’s a big thing, reinforcing Nato alliance and of course climate change.”
