MNI BRIEF: Macron: EU Must Be “Tough” Ensuring UK Agreements

(MNI) London

French President Emmanuel Macron called on the EU to take a tough position on the UK and ensure that it complies with the post-Brexit agreements it has signed with the EU.

“The UK government needs to commit itself in good faith respecting the agreements already agreed with the Union, which we will stick to, and we want to make certain that the agreements entered into are respected when it comes to the rights of our fishermen or the Northern Ireland Protocol...,” Macron told the European Parliament Wednesday.

“Let’s be clear, let’s be tough and say that that agreements entered into have to be respected -- that’s the way to remain friends”.
