EU Secures Major Win in Fisheries Deal with UK, London Gains Market Access
- The UK and the EU reached a last-minute agreement in London on May 19, 2025, extending fishing access rights for 12 years until June 2038.
- This deal resulted from prolonged negotiations aimed at resetting post-Brexit relations and included unresolved issues such as the youth mobility scheme and future trade talks.
- The agreement facilitates simplified sanitary and phytosanitary inspections related to food, animals, and agricultural goods and marks a positive advancement toward enhanced long-term collaboration in fisheries and trade.
- Nick Thomas-Symonds said the deal could 'get the economy moving,' tackle illegal migration, and create growth while critics warn it risks undermining UK control of coastal waters.
- The extension provides stability for European fishing communities and supports further negotiations on trade, mobility, and defence expected to conclude later this summer.
