Sir: The historic referendum which was conducted on Tuesday 23 June, 2016 for Brexit (Britain Exit) is expected to take effect on Friday 29 March, 2019. The democratic decision of withdrawing European Union by being the first country to exit from EU after Denmark is going to leave its impacts on Pakistan eventually. Since the exports of Pakistan to UK are governed by Generalized Scheme of Preferences (GSP) plus scheme of the EU, the phenomenon changes by the time the Brexit takes space in 2019. On one hand, Pakistan is fourth world exporter of UK. On the other hand, UK is the 15th source of imports of Pakistan. Nearly 85% of exports of Pakistan to UK are made-up textile articles, cotton and articles of leather. Iron, steel, machinery, electric and electronic equipment are the largest imports that the Pakistan receives from UK. In 2015, Pakistan exported $353 million services to UK while imported $524 million services from UK. In this way, history witnesses that Pakistan and UK have a direct proportionality relation in term of trade which includes exports and imports respectively. The situation of trade of post-Brexit between Pakistan and UK soundly might be in trouble since European Union is playing an effective role in their bilateral relations. However, Pakistan Business Council (PBC) which was set up in 2005 by 60 of Pakistan’s largest business now is attempting to intimate negotiations with UK for Free Trade Arrangement (FTA). In other words, the trade deficit between Pakistan and United Kingdom can be seen of a big difference. Calculations sum it up that the imports ($18.7 billion) of Pakistan from UK is twice that of the exports ($9.1 billion) received by United Kingdom which might be same even in the presence of an FTA. While the tariffs applied by Pakistan on UK before are closed to the tariffs that have been applied on UK in FTA. In this way the difference between trades deficit of the countries don’t result in achievement of actual numbers. Therefore, Pakistan need to increase its travel and transport exports to UK and business and machinery imports from UK. Finally, our Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood, expressed that post-Brexit would open new opportunities and trade between Pakistan and United Kingdom. Further, it is expressed that bilateral cooperation between the countries would bring development and prosperity towards the both nations. It would improve the cooperation in spheres of money laundering, counterterrorism, asset recovery, regional security and organized crimes. Now will Pakistan and United Kingdom face better bilateral cooperation after Brexit? It remains nonetheless more than an expectation until Brexit takes effect.
