Of course they do, but have to deal with tariffs and quotas. Unless they sign a free trade agreement. The EU has FTAs with many countries which do not involve adhering to the EU's single market rules. But that trade involves a lot more paperwork than trade within the single market. So, although there aren't tariffs, the trade isn't frictionless. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-36083664 Though the argument is, that that friction is a price worth paying in order to simplify our trade with ROW (and even intra-UK, for that matter) Fully analysed, that pov might not be right, but Remainers can't simply dismiss it as not existing (which is the generally the approach used so far) tim The rules apply both ways. It will cost EU countries also to sell to the UK, and they sell to us far more than we buy from them. So in my view they will want to do a deal. The Germans already do. |
