As an observer living 2,000 kilometers from Kiev, what I perceived of BREXIT was what someone in the UK Government or business asked in an interview. He said, and I am loosely paraphrasing, "What on earth are we going to do now. How can be possibly re-negotiated more than 700 trade treaties with foreign customers and countries?" Right there and right then, I knew BREXIT was going to do something to rejuvenate and reinvigorate The United Kingdom, because now Great Britain had to dig deep in its pockets for home-grown talent to find negotiators etc. It doesn't stop there, because everything had to be looked at in a new way and figured out and---yes; there were miles of red tape that took up tons of hours of time and lost produce and the like, but all in all I believe it gave The United Kingdom a chance to do some long-overdue housecleaning for lack of another expression. The added bonus---again in my humble opinion----was when former Prime Minister came to visit President Zelensky and promise military and financial aid for as long as it takes to stop the Russians from taking over Kiev and the Ukraine. This brave action woke up a sleeping giant in that The United Kingdom was now reinstating itself as a superpower that had no qualms about standing up to the second superpower in the world, notably Russia. Yes; it's only one person's opinion, but I believe BREXIT was a lot of pain but the gain will be felt for decades and now the world sees that The United Kingdom is indeed a superpower in every aspect of the term.
