Nations to sign partnership
London: British Prime Minister Boris Johnson meets Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy today to sign a partnership agreement that includes a free trade deal covering goods, services, and tariffs and quotas.
Since leaving the European Union earlier this year, Britain is seeking bilateral agreements with other countries, underlining Johnson’s resolve to go it alone once a transition arrangement with the bloc concludes at the end of this year.
The agreement includes a comprehensive preferential free trade agreement covering goods, services, and tariffs and quotas, the government said. — Reuters
