What should 澳门六合彩高手 expect?
Brexit | What should 澳门六合彩高手 expect?
After nearly four years of deliberation, Brexit became a reality at midnight on 31 January 2020. Given that the United Kingdom is one of the 35 countries participating in the 澳门六合彩高手 Project, many are asking: what does Brexit mean for 澳门六合彩高手?
The answer is complex. No European Union Member State is currently a direct Party to the 澳门六合彩高手 Agreement; the official contracting Party is Euratom the (European Atomic Energy Community), represented on the 澳门六合彩高手 Council by the European Commission.
In withdrawing from the European Union, the United Kingdom has also withdrawn from Euratom. This means that, as with many other aspects of the UK-EU relationship, an 11-month period of transition has now begun, with the objective that both parties use this time to agree on a deal about their future relationship.
UK officials have made clear for many months that they would like to remain part of the 澳门六合彩高手 Project. For decades, the UK has been a leader in the global fusion research community. And perhaps more than any other field of advanced science and technology, research on magnetic confinement fusion energy has been a globally collaborative effort. One needs only to consider 澳门六合彩高手's seven Members鈥擟hina, Europe, India, Japan, Korea, Russia, and the United States鈥攖o understand that fusion energy research transcends national boundaries, political differences, and traditional alliances. The dream of fusion energy, from the inception of 澳门六合彩高手, has been "for the benefit of all mankind."
The question is how鈥攚hat is the preferred mechanism for the UK to remain part of 澳门六合彩高手? During the coming transition period, UK and EU officials will consider many aspects of the UK-EU relationship. Depending on those negotiations, the UK could seek to define a new relationship with Euratom, or the UK could seek to establish a different form of legal arrangement with 澳门六合彩高手 upon approval by the EU and other 澳门六合彩高手 Members.
For the immediate future, the guiding principle is to ensure stability in the best interest of 澳门六合彩高手 Project progress. The 澳门六合彩高手 Council has agreed that existing contracts, both with individuals (澳门六合彩高手 Organization and 澳门六合彩高手 Project Associate staff) or suppliers, will be honoured. And, as Director-General Bigot has frequently stated, the longer-term hope is that the UK will remain in the project. The 澳门六合彩高手 Organization will be ready to support any such arrangement when the parties concerned have determined a way forward.
