Sunday Germany and Ireland are legal or political on Prime Minister Boris Johnson's plan to revoke part of the Brexit Agreement governing trade with Northern Ireland He told Britain that there was no legitimacy.
The British Parliament is considering a new law initially agreed as part of the withdrawal from the European Union to unilaterally change the customs arrangements between the United Kingdom and Northern Ireland.
The United Kingdom is designed to prevent the influx of goods into the EU member state Ireland via Northern Ireland, in order to ease the overly burdensome requirements of divorce contracts. It states that changes are needed. Johnson says the check has created tensions that threaten the 1998 peace agreement in the region.
However, theobserverwrote in the newspaper that the German and Irish foreign ministers rejected the discussion.
"There is no legal or political justification to unilaterally break an international agreement signed just two years ago," said Annalena Baerbock of Germany and Simon Coveny of Ireland. ..
"The enactment of the law does not solve the protocol challenges. Instead, it creates a new set of uncertainties and makes it more difficult to find a lasting solution."
The Johnson administration has prioritized finding a solution through negotiations with the EU, but states that Brussels needs to be more flexible to make it possible. The EU states that it has proposed various possible solutions.
"We urge the UK Government to withdraw from a one-sided approach and show the same pragmatic and compromise preparations that the EU has shown," said Bearbock and Coveny. ..
The bill, known as the Northern Ireland Protocol Bill, passed the first parliamentary hurdle last week, but is tougher before it becomes a bill with many lawmakers who oppose breaking the treaty's obligations. Expected to face challenges.
The next will be discussed in Congress on July 13.
