g********2 发帖数: 6571 | 1 President Obama’s infamous remark that Britain would go to the “back of
the queue” in negotiating trade deals if it voted for Brexit has rank among
the most foolish diplomatic initiatives in presidential history. Not only
did it spark resentment in Britain that helped the Brexit vote, it is
turning out to spectacularly incorrect. Quite contrary to Obama’s
prediction, there is a bit of a land rush underway as trading powers are
eager to negotiate tarde deals with the fifth largest economy in thr world,
now liberated from its continental overlords. The UK Express reports:
Australia, Canada, South Korea, India and Mexico are all understood to
be keen to get around the negotiating table as soon as possible and American
politicians are also eager to strike a deal.
In an effort to overcome Obama’s ineptness:
US House of Representatives Speaker Paul Ryan is calling for urgent
talks on new trade agreements to ensure “a smooth” relationship after
Brexit, despite the warnings from President Barack Obama that Britain would
go the back of the queue in the event of a leave vote.
Mr Ryan, the former Republican vice-presidential candidate and one of
the party’s most senior politicians, said: “Obviously it takes time to do
something like this but I think it is something we should be working on.
“We should begin discussions with Great Britain to ease concerns so
that we do have a smooth trade relationship with Great Britain, because they
are our indispensable ally.”
With its trade ties to its Commonwealth, and its history as a global trader,
Britain is a very attractive partner for trade negotiations. The real
problem it may face in the near future is finding enough experienced
negotiators to handle all the discussions that lie ahead.
