    EU and trade agreements

    Of course, post Brexit, Britain will be subject to harsh import/export tariffs to the EU, we all know this, we have read the Independent and the Guardian.

    So what about Iran, how do they fair trading with the EU?

    Iran - Trade - European Commission

    Wow, can't be easy for, say France to setup it's car manufacturing there, what with them being on UN sanctions list. Hell, they are not even WTO members.

    You cannot compare this deal on the same level as trade with post Brexit UK.

    Renault, Peugeot-Citroen has had manufacturing partnerships in Iran since the 1950s. After the revolution and as a result of pressure from US sanctions, production was reduced to a trickle.

    The new agreements are a joint venture on credit paid for by Renault, Peugeot-Citroen. It is very high risk for the French.

      It's happening because there is political will for it to happen.

      I'm not sure what the political will is for anything to do with brexit. Seems to be a lose lose negotiation taking place.

      There is no political will for a good/reasonable/sensible/equitable deal.

        Define "good/reasonable/sensible/equitable".

        Because the Tory party can't even do this within themselves.

              But your Brexit government has already rejected the Norwegian model and said the EFTA is out the question.
