The UK is trying to rebuild its relationship with Europe

As newly-elected Prime Minister Keir Starmer seeks to revive and rebuild ties with Europe, EU citizens living in the UK are watching their new government’s next steps closely.

At a press conference presenting his complete legislative agenda, Starmer highlighted the need for a post-Brexit deal with Brussels Better than what was negotiated first by Theresa May and then by Boris Johnson.

“We think we can get a better deal than the failed deal Boris Johnson brought home”Starmer said, “We will work towards that – understanding the work that needs to be done and the nature of the challenge.”

Brexit has presented many challenges over the years, but with Labor now in power, the UK hopes to redefine its relationship with Europe.

The key question is whether a new approach will lead to better engagement Better business relationships And how it will affect the country’s large population of EU citizens.

“The first thing we felt was relief.”

In London, the majority of Europeans are young, many of whom are optimistic about Starmer’s approach and eager to see the restoration of freedom of movement, one of the most important casualties of Brexit.

Victoria Croda-Pinto, a resident of England, told Euronews that she was “a bit more confident” than with the Conservatives in power.

Ricardo Hyoiti Guiatoko was equally cautious: “There are many pros and cons,” he said of Labor’s massive electoral victory, “but the first thing we felt was relief.”

Elisa Consiglio shares her thoughts on the state of Anglo-European relations. “I feel like we’re separated in a certain sense,” he explained. “In the past, it was very different because we were all together. Now, in a way, I feel like we’re separated.”

The outcome of Labour’s plan to strengthen ties with Europe remains uncertain, depending on external factors, including the upcoming US presidential election.

Professor Jonathan Ports, one of the leading experts on relations between the United Kingdom and the European Union at King’s College London, said it would be some time before the prospects for the future became clear. “If there are positive agreements, this can create a political and economic movement in which both parties are pressured to move faster, which could bring about more real change.”He said.

“At this point, I don’t think we really know. And it will obviously depend on broader geopolitical pressures and considerations.”

Only time will tell if these efforts will lead to stronger ties and greater prosperity between the UK and Europe.
