Brexit trade deal becomes law, nearly five years after ‘leave’ vote | THE DAILY TRIBUNE | KINGDOM OF BAHRAIN

The historic post-Brexit trade deal between the European Union and Britain came into effect on Saturday, as the fifth anniversary of the Brexit vote approaches, the Deutsche Presse Agentur (DPA) reported.

The trade deal - struck in late December - had been provisionally applied since the beginning of 2021 to allow the European Parliament time to ratify it.

The British parliament gave its green light back in December.
