Summary/Abstract: The more-confrontational-than-expected tone of the European Council (EUCO) conclusions in respect of the negotiations on EU-UK relations after Brexit and the subsequent exchange of statements by both sides (15-18 October) resulted in the talks being stopped at their last stage. Despite the progress noted by negotiators in recent weeks, the scenario of a “no deal” on trade - risky for both sides - may come true because of the ongoing dispute over EU fishing rights in British waters.
