However, Turkey is in a customs union with the EU, so an agreement with the UK could only be implemented once the UK has reached an agreement with the EU, which could be of great importance to Northern Ireland`s exporters of goods and services in the future. „After the end of the transition period, at the end of this year, we will no longer be in the EU and we will no longer be a party for the Ankara agreement. The provisions of the treaty do not apply to us. What we need to do is find the right arrangements that we can have in his place,“ Chilcott said at a meeting with the Association of Diplomatic Correspondents. 2.12: […] Until there is a change in UK legislation in certain areas, it is not expected that the repeal of these rights will […] Turkish nationals who carry out transactions or services just before the departure date can do so immediately after the departure date (provided they retain the right of residence). RELATED: The Irish government announces an envelope of 28 million euros for the border region. He referred to a pact for a visa regime for Turkish businessmen before the UK joined the EU; „We negotiated two separate agreements, one is the free trade agreement, the other is similar to Ankara`s.“ The EEA-EFTA states (Norway, Iceland and Liechtenstein) participate in the EU internal market by being part of the European Economic Area (EEA). The EEA agreement forms the main basis for the UK`s current cooperation with these countries in a number of important areas, including trade and citizens` rights. In the absence of further action, the EEA agreement will no longer work for the UK if we leave the EU, even in a non-agreement scenario. However, if the UK withdraws from an agreement, the EU has agreed to assure contracting parties and third countries that for the purposes of its international agreements, the UK will be treated as an EU member state during a possible transposition period.
These include the EEA agreement. As soon as a transposition period expires, new rules to facilitate EFTA relations between the UK and the EEA will come into force. Chilcott pointed out that 90 per cent of Anglo-Turkish trade, worth more than $20 billion a year and which has grown by 50 per cent over the past decade, is commodities that have gone through the customs union agreement. Membership of the UK is covered by a large number of EU international agreements. These international agreements include political, security, economic and other forms of cooperation and cooperation with more than 100 third countries and cover a number of sectors such as aeronautics, trade, nuclear industry, the environment, fisheries and political agreements. The government has worked with non-EU countries to identify agreements that need action and have a mutual interest in changing agreements to prepare for our exit from the EU. Such a mechanism, which may be available for certain agreements, is provisional application, where the United Kingdom and the third country agree to apply a contract „on an interim basis“ from the date of withdrawal for a specified period, until all national procedures are completed and the treaty enters into force.
