Dutch might prefer ‘no-deal’ Brexit to further delay -minister

The Dutch might prefer a ‘no-deal’ Brexit on Oct. 31 to continuing uncertainty about when and how Britain will leave the European Union, Foreign Trade Minister Sigrid Kaag said in an interview published on Monday. “There comes a point where the certainty of being worse off can be better than ongoing uncertainty without any new prospect,” Kaag told the Dutch daily Het Financieele Dagblad. A chaotic Brexit without a transition agreement to soften the economic shock could come at a significant cost for the Netherlands as Britain is its third largest trading partner after Germany and Belgium.
