French President Emmanuel Macron and Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez, on September 30 in Madrid, voiced support for considerations regarding a possible return of the United Kingdom to the European Union. They made these statements following a joint meeting, shortly after British Prime Minister Andy Burnham did not rule out this possibility. teraz.sk ↗
Macron stated that France would welcome Britain's return among the 27 EU member states and would be ready to help make it happen. Sánchez described Brexit as an enormous loss for the British population and likewise expressed support for the country's possible return to the Union. svet.sme.sk ↗
Burnham's statements sparked positive reactions in both Paris and Madrid. Macron and Sánchez agreed that the United Kingdom would be welcome in the European Union. Brussels' reaction, according to the available account, was more reserved. hnonline.sk ↗
Britain left the European Union following the 2016 referendum, and Brexit took effect in 2020. The current statements by the British prime minister do not signal the start of a formal return process, but they indicate a possible shift in the political debate in London. Further developments would depend on the British government, EU member states, and the Union's institutions themselves. aktuality.sk ↗
