The Debate - Post-Brexit Tensions

Britain and the European Union have failed to agree on any solutions to ease post-Brexit trade with Northern Ireland and exchanged threats in a standoff that could cloud the G7 international summit over the weekend. Since Britain completed its arduous exit from the EU late last year, its relations with Brussels have sunk, with each side accusing the other of bad faith over a part of their Brexit deal that covers goods movements to Northern Ireland. Britain says "the ball is very much in the EU's court" with regards to the implementation of the protocol. The EU says its patience with the UK is running out and threatened trade sanctions if London unilaterally broke its promises.
