![Brexit: Latest state of play [What Think Tanks are thinking]](https://i0.wp.com/epthinktank.eu/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/eprs_brie_tt_625149_brexit_final.jpg?fit=1000%2C667&ssl=1)
Written by Marcin Grajewski,
The politically charged negotiations on the United Kingdom’s withdrawal from the European Union moved forward a little in July, when the British Cabinet put detailed proposals on the table for the future framework of EU-UK relations. The document, which envisages relatively close ties between the EU and UK, in trade and several other areas, after Britain leaves in March 2019, prompted the resignations of two senior ministers David Davis and Boris Johnson, who favour an even harder Brexit. EU officials have said that the new proposals contain some constructive elements, although many questions remain unanswered.
This note offers links to reports and commentaries from some major international think-tanks and research institutes on Brexit negotiations and related issues. More reports on the topic can be found in a previous edition of ‘What Think Tanks are thinking’, published in May 2018.
