Abstract

Great Britain always demonstrated Euroscepticism in different ways. The discrepancy between the theoretical vision of the EU and actions towards him is largely explained by the fact that the British vision of economic integration, which occurred prior to the signing of the Maastricht Treaty, gradually has been changed to the European vision of a federative union. That is why the Con-servatives‟ coming in 2010 and the aggravation of crises in the EU the opinion about Great Britain had to leave the EU become implemented practically. The aim of this paper is to analyze the problems and the perspectives of political and economic relations between Great Britain and the EU during Brexit. In a referendum on 23 June 2016 British voted to leave the EU. In March 2017, the UK Prime-Minister Teresa May invoked Article 50 of the Treaty of Lisbon to start the first stage of exit from the EU. The key issues on this phase were the issues of migrants, the rights of European and British citizens to reside and to work, the UK payment for its budget commitments for the period of membership in the European Union until 2020, and the problem of crossing the border be-tween Ireland and Northern Ireland. Considering analysts‟ forecasts, Trade and Economic relations could turn into a game with a negative amount in the way the talks will be in a dead end, or will bring the positive results for both party talks in the case of reach-ing an agreement that would be worthy of replacing a full UK membership in the Single Market
