How will Brexit change the EU?
From an economic and trade perspective, the UK leaving the European Union will be a serious problem for Europe and a 鈥渃atastrophic problem鈥 for the UK, the former Italian Prime Minister Paolo Gentiloni has said.
Speaking to 大象传媒 Hardtalk鈥檚 Stephen Sackur, Mr Gentiloni said he hoped not much would change from a geopolitical point of view, explaining that we shared common values and wanted the EU and UK to continue to be strong allies.
