The UK is nearing a deal with Spain and the EU regarding Gibraltar’s post-Brexit status, a lingering issue since Brexit’s implementation in early 2020. UK Foreign Secretary David Lammy’s recent meetings in Gibraltar and Brussels suggest progress, though officials warn that a final agreement is not yet guaranteed. Key points of contention include border policing and airport passport checks, with the UK prioritizing sovereignty while both Spain and the EU seek a role in managing the border to facilitate the free movement of people essential for Gibraltar’s economy.
