A German exporters’ association is welcoming the European Union’s decision to delay Brexit until Jan. 31, but says this should be the final extension.
The EU agreed yesterday to delay Britain’s departure by three months, averting for the now the prospect of Britain falling out of the bloc i a chaotic no-deal Brexit. Holger Bingmann, the head of Germany’s BGA association, said it was the right decision but “it is high time that we conclude this issue.”
He said a further impasse would be “a barely sustainable burden” for European and British business struggling with all the uncertainty over Brexit.
Bingmann says businesses need to be able to make plans. He added that he hopes a possible early British election in the next few months “brings more clarity politically and moves the country out of checkmate.”
