FAZ: German industry wants clearer lines
28 August 2017
An article in FAZ shows how representatives of the German business and banking sector are becoming increasingly vocal about how the slow pace of the Brexit negotiations and the UK's lack of clarity is damaging for German businesses.
The head of BDI, the Federation of German Industry, criticised the UK's demands on the custom's union and the immense bureaucracy this would involve, which would not be an easy task for companies. The article also refers to an interview of Guy Verhofstadt with Die Welt, during which he said that the UK needed to offer more concrete proposals on the most essential topics: The Irish border, EU citizen's rights and the Brexit bill.
