UK could join Europe-wide customs deal in post-Brexit reset, Brussels trade chief says

The UK could join a Europe-wide trading agreement as part of Sir Keir Starmer’s post-Brexit reset with the EU, one of the bloc’s top trade chiefs has said.

Maros Sefcovic, who led post-Brexit negotiations for the European Union, said it would consider letting Britain join the Pan-Euro-Mediterranean Convention (PEM) as the PM chases closer ties with Brussels.
