We have just reached a political agreement on the UK's participation in Horizon Europe and Copernicus. It will allow the EU and UK to deepen their relationship in research, innovation and space, bringing together research and space communities. More ↓
@EU_Commission Great to hear, but i hope that a number 1 condition is that UK relaxes its extremely challenging rules about hiring international scientists @PeterHorby
@EU_Commission Europe has a financial black hole to fill so let's get the UK piggy bank
@EU_Commission Let’s hope that further cooperation can be established and that UK will be handled in the same manner as Norway and Switzerland, until the time is there that the UK people will be able to rejoin the EU.
@EU_Commission Look I’m a strong brexiteer, but some programmes make sense to collaborate with. Brexit was not about being isolationist.
@EU_Commission Finally, common sense has arrived at both parties🥳👍
@EU_Commission @CopernicusEU That's a disgrace for EU ... UK wanted to be out of UK, it should remain like that. You cant have everything from both sides
@EU_Commission Good. Better for patients and better for quality of research
@EU_Commission This was part of a post Brexit deal made in 2020, but delayed because of political disagreements, so the only news here is that the 🇬🇧 & 🇪🇺 have recognized that holding back scientific progress over unrelated political disputes benefits no one. Common sense for once has prevailed
@EU_Commission Does this mean @EUErasmusPlus for University staff will be available again in the UK? @LivUniHLS
@EU_Commission EU accepting UK cherrypicking.
