UK, EU officials continue talks on Gibraltar's post-Brexit future

LONDON

In a bid to fortify ties with the EU, UK Foreign Secretary David Cameron met on Thursday European Commission's Vice President MaroS Sefcovic in Brussels on Thursday.

"The UK and EU share a close and pragmatic partnership, addressing shared challenges together. In Brussels, I met Maros Sefcovic," Cameron said on X.

"We talked about maximising opportunities in our Trade & Cooperation Agreement, tackling illegal migration and progressing negotiations on Gibraltar," he added.

Set against the backdrop of unresolved intricacies post-Brexit, Cameron will spearhead further discussions concerning Gibraltar's future.

His itinerary includes pivotal meetings with Spanish Foreign Minister Jose Manuel Albares and Gibraltar Chief Minister Fabian Picardo.

Central to these discussions is the unresolved nature of Gibraltar's relationship with the EU, particularly concerning the regulatory framework governing its border with Spain.
