讲座简介：
“BREXIT: Implications for the EU, for Britain’s future trading relationships with the EU, the USA and China. Is there a threat to globalisation?”
“On 23 June 2016, the British electorate made the fateful decision to leave the European Union and to disassociate itself from an organisation to which it has belonged for 44 years. There are, of course, considerable implications for the UK in so doing, but there are also significant implications for the EU itself, particularly given the uncertainties and instabilities it is currently facing with, on its western front, a nationalist Donald Trump in the White House who seems to be encouraging anti-EU parties and candidates to follow Britain’s Brexit example, and on its eastern front, Vladimir Putin in the Kremlin who is openly hostile to the status of the EU across Eastern Europe and wants to weaken the EU in any way possible.
“ The talk will cover the possible scenarios that the Brexit decision implies for the European Union, both in the short and medium term, and will discuss implications for Britain’s future trading and international relations generally with other countries, to include with the USA and with China.”
